Itinerarios Culturales España 4+

The aim of this project is to promote the sustainable development of the Cultural Routes of the Council of Europe in Spain and to encourage the improvement of the competitiveness of the cultural sector through the use of new technologies at the service of the dissemination of the different Itineraries certified in our country. At the same time, it serves as a new channel of communication with citizens, visitors and tourists, establishing a new tool for social dynamisation.


Cultural Routes


The Council of Europe's Cultural Routes are an invitation to discover Europe's diverse heritage and symbolise some of the values of the Council of Europe: human rights, cultural diversity, intercultural dialogue and mutual exchanges across borders. Through its programme, the Council of Europe enables synergies between national, regional and local authorities and a wide range of associations and socio-economic actors. In this way, the Cultural Routes preserve and enhance Europe's common heritage as a source of cultural, social and economic development. Spain currently participates in 25 certified Cultural Routes covering various themes and integrating different countries.



The app


The aim of this App: "Cultural Routes of the Council of Europe in Spain", is to promote and disseminate the Cultural Routes of the Council of Europe in Spain. The App serves as a starting point to make known and prepare the visit to the different points of cultural interest that make up the Itineraries. This will serve to contribute to the dissemination of Spanish cultural and natural heritage and as a link with the European heritage in which it is framed.
