Landscape enhancement (open-air museums, eco-museums, cultural parks)

Research in this field is aimed at studying and enhancing the sites’ specific and historic-cultural characters through a museum-linked project involving the whole territory. It does not just consider the architectural artefacts (both single items and whole settlements), but all landscape vegetal and mineral components (itineraries, waterways, woods, crops, furnishing etc…) that have characterized it over time and that can still be read thanks to the dissemination of knowledge.
