During the latest online meeting of the Narrative Heritage Network on Wednesday 17 June 2026, we explored possibilities for new ways of telling stories. John Beauchamp, our guide to olfactory heritage, demonstrated how aromas can become part of the experience alongside sight and sound.

Narrative Heritage Network #3 Olfactory Senses

What’s in a smell? For this session of the Narrative Heritage Network from the Europa Nostra European Heritage Hub, we explore the world of olfactory senses and how we can conjure up worlds through smell. During the online meeting, we will explore how certain smells can conjure up certain emotions, memories, reactions… How can we harness the power of the olfactory network to deepen the experience of heritage? The discussion will be led by heritage expert and researcher and John Beauchamp. Do join us online on Wednesday 17 June 2026 at 1000 CEST.

Heritage Voices: Gábor Sonkoly on the concept and practical use of cultural heritage

Professor Gábor Sonkoly, a renowned theoretician of cultural heritage and co-creator of the discourse of the historic urban landscape, talks to Dr Katarzyna Jagodzińska about the practical application of the concept in the form of the European Heritage Label and other ‘lists’ and ‘registers’ of heritage sites and practices. Does the abundance of heritage inscriptions distract the public’s attention, or does it help to raise awareness and develop the heritage economy?
