Cultural Heritage is the multifaceted legacy we inherit from the past, live with in the present, and pass on to future generations. It embodies what makes us human while at the same time anchoring us within specific national, ethnic, religious, social, gender, or linguistic groups.
In this spirit, the Austrian Archaeological Institute of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, as the future host of the national node of the Consortium E-RIHS (European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science), is pleased to organise the “Heritage Meets Science” 2025 Conference.

The conference is twofold: the first day will introduce E-RIHS ERIC and present an overview of heritage research in Austria at universities, museums, and the Federal Monument Authority, opening the floor to discussion on future perspectives and collaborations at both national and European levels. On the second day, the nine projects funded in the framewo rk of the first call of the Heritage Science Austria funding programme of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (2020) will share their final results, showcasing the transdisciplinary field of Heritage Science, which explores heritage through its documentation, interpretation, preservation, and management, and provides comprehensive access to art, cultural properties, and archaeological legacy.

Registration is mandatory for both in-person and virtual attendance.
