International Heritage Show
Preservation - Restoration - Promotion

An Event Combining Culture and Economics |
|

Since 1995, held in the prestigious setting of the Carrousel du Louvre, the show has been both a witness to and an active player in the safeguarding of heritage, whether immovable or movable, material or immaterial.
A benchmark event today bringing together all the sectors of heritage life, the show creates a tremendous synergy between trade professionals, the public, those passionate about heritage and those who are the guardians.
Each year in November, the International Heritage Show is both a showcase for quality craftsmanship and a vehicle for the development of the economy and tourism. |
