Terra Mosana is a euregional project aiming to investigate, digitalise and present the shared history of the Meuse-Rhine Euregion. Over the course of three years (2018-2021), various cities and regions, heritage sites, museums and universities have jointly developed digital narratives through 3D modelling and on-site augmented reality connecting cultural heritage sites in Aachen, Jülich, Leopoldsburg, Liège, Maastricht, and Tongeren.

During these days, there will be keynotes, workshops and panel sessions spread out over four afternoons (from 14.00 to 16.30 CET). Under the umbrella of the conference theme Sustainable Digital Heritage, these separate events will zoom into the following topics:
