Cultural heritage possesses and represents a great historical and social value of a society and a nation. First of all, it can be said that cultural heritage represents the identity of every nation, society and region-continent.

The whole of Europe is extremely rich in cultural heritage consisting of monasteries, cathedrals, churches (religious buildings), castles, fortresses, remains of ancient cultures (Romans, Greeks, Celts, etc.), monuments, memorial complexes, as well as intangible cultural heritage, which make up history, customs, stories…

The general objective of the project is to raise the visibility of cultural heritage and transparency in order to raise awareness of the importance of preserving cultural heritage and improving tourism potential.

As a part of Europe and the history that happened on the European continent, we want to network and connect states, cities, towns, municipalities and others, with the goal of digitalizing cultural heritage. Where through the digitalization process we will preserve the cultural heritage, provide it with greater transparency, but also network with other partners.

Through the process of digitizing cultural heritage, medieval historical stories that follow certain cities, dynasties, castles, cultures, as well as marriages and love stories of that time, which led to the merging of different cultures, would be presented.

Digitization will lead to greater visibility of cultural heritage, through the revival of history, but also through the promotion of the tourist potential of all partners as well as the whole of Europe. The project and its partnership is focusing on the following objective and tasks – defining: mapping cultural heritage in partner's regions, greater accessibility of cultural heritage throught the digitization proces. The Project takes placethrought 4 phases. They include exchange and learning, events to identify ideas, quarterly reporting, site development, promotion and prezentation.
