Beschreibung
This is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in Idrija, Slovenia, where the world's second-largest mercury mine was once located. Today, the city is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List for its rich mining heritage.
Our's mission is to preserve and develop cultural heritage, especially in peripheral and rural areas. this place brings elements of (social) entrepreneurship, youth work, marketing, architecture, and community building into the field of heritage with innovative and award-winning approaches, thus contributing not only to preservation, but also to social and economic development based on heritage.
This place includes and supports heritage enthusiasts to bring cultural heritage closer to young people and cultural tourists, thus encouraging further development of peripheral and rural areas.
Two projects are currently most in need of help:
1. House - In 2021, we have acquired a 200-year old traditional miners house that has been abandoned for 20 years. Since then we are slowly improving its condition, by cleaning, maintaining and running workshops, trainings and cultural events at the house. More about the house: ask us for the link
2. A Festival - On August 24th, we are organising a gastronomy festival for 4000 peopleArten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten
