Share on 
The EU-funded “Support Programme for the protection and enhancement of cultural heritage in Algeria” (PATRIMOINE) organised a seminar in Batna earlier this month to present a pilot project to secure and promote the royal mausoleum-temple of the Berber Numidian Kings (Imedghassen).
The seminar focused on the challenges and opportunities for the protection and enhancement of the site dating from the Numidian period and was the occasion to present to decision makers and stakeholders, the tools and methodologies proposed by the experts in charge of the project.
The heritage programme aims to support the inclusion of cultural heritage as a development tool in Algeria and to contribute to its identification, protection and development. It also seeks to build capacity in the sector at central and local level and provide technical support. (EU Neighbourhood Info)
