Evaluation of Cultural Heritage fund EEA and Norway Grants

 

CIE is participating in an evaluation of the Cultural Heritage Fund under the EEA grants & Norway grants programme 2004 -2009. Our partner in this evaluation is Pitija consulting from Slovenia. Local consultants in the visited countries are included as well. They provide us with necessary knowledge on their national heritage policies. Seven countries are selected for field visits. Representatives of CIE visit the projects in the fall of 2011.

 

In Poland a CIE representative visited five projects:

1. The Old Foundry in Starachowice. Now completely rehabilitated and not only a monumental site but also a museum on the paleontological period.

2. The new Sukiennice. Krakow’s oldest museum has renovated their gallery in the cloth hall at the central square completely. 

3. The Ossolinksi library in Wroclaw digitized and conserved their oldest works. 

4. The Boleslawiec Centre of Arts. It functions as a vital community centre and a showroom for the famous Boleslawiec ceramics. 

5. The former Tram Depot in Szczecin. This monument is turned into a museum for transportation, communication and technique. 

 

Other countries under evaluation are Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia and Lithuania.
