We’re very happy and proud to announce that Odeuropa has won one of Europe’s top heritage distinctions in 2025, the Europa Nostra / European Heritage award in the category of research!
Odeuropa was one of just 30 winners selected from 251 applicants from 41 European countries. The international awards jury praised Odeuropa in particular for its innovative, interdiciplinary approach and impact:
“Odeuropa’s multidisciplinary research into the new field of olfactory heritage fills a gap in scientific knowledge and standards and creates new tools and data to support future research into historical scent and heritage.”
and,
“The project’s educational initiatives, including a PhD course and strong dissemination strategies, effectively support the integration of scent into museum practice.”
The official awards ceremony will take place on 13 October in Brussels, as part of the European Cultural Heritage Summit 2025. During the ceremony, the Grand Prix laureates and the Public Choice Award winner selected from amongst this year’s Europa Nostra winners will be announced. Please vote for us and support our bid for the Public Choice Award! You can very easily and quickly cast your vote online until September 12th.
