European Association of Historic Towns and Regions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The European Association of Historic Towns and Regions (EAHTR), founded by the Council of Europe in 1999, is a self-governing organisation of some 950 of Europe's historic towns.
It defines its principle objective as 'the identification and sharing of experience and good practice in the sustainable urban conservation and management of historic areas through international collaboration and co-operation between towns and cities and other involved organisations'.
EAHTR is based in Norwich, England. The current President is Louis Roppe (Belgium) and the Secretary-General Brian Smith (UK).
