Europa Nostra 2011; Part III.

zaterdag 11 juni 2011

Forest Returns decided to become active member of Europa Nostra. This non governmental organization (NGO) campaigns against the many threats to Europe’s cultural heritage. When monuments, copuntry estates or sites are in danger by uncontrolled development, environmental change, neglect or conflict, we raise our voice. Cooperation and solidarity between heritage organisations and activists are vital to ensure that witnesses of our past are here to enjoy today and in the future. Each year, Euiropa Nostra rewards the best of cultural heritage achievements. Through European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards, we celebrate excellence and dedication by architects, craftsmen, volunteers, schools, local communities, heritage owners and media. Through the power of their example we stimulate creativity and innovation. Anno 2011 the Europa Nostra Heritage Conference 2011 takes place in Amsterdam. This photo-album part III.  shows pictures of the Annual Assembly in the `Hermitage`, chaired by Europa Nostra president Maestro Placido Domingo and hosted by Ernst Veen and of the `Industrial Hertitage Tour`, organised by Mr. Rienko Wilton and Drs. Hildebrand de Boer.
