Description
In the wake of the Centenary of World War I, new approaches to memorial heritage have emerged, with the structuring of remembrance tourism and the beginning of the digitization of memorial heritage. Today, in the context of the 80th anniversary of the Allied landings in Normandy on the one hand, and facing the urgent need to respond to the disappearance of the last witnesses of the Second World War atrocities on the other, new large-scale initiatives are emerging to preserve and promote shared memory. While memorials and museums dedicated to the memory of the European conflicts of the 20th century are crucial for transmission to younger generations as well as for the identity and even the attractiveness of an area, we will explore innovation in that field, in terms of digital technology, mediation, territorial structuring and ecological transition.
