The European Heritage Network (HEREIN)
The European Heritage Network (HEREIN) is a permanent information system bringing together government departments responsible for cultural heritage under the umbrella of the Council of Europe. Born of exemplary co-operation between the Council of Europe and the European Commission in 1999, the European Heritage Network has become a reference point for government bodies, professionals, research workers and non-governmental organisations active in this field. 43 countries currently participate in the Network and others may join.

The Council of Europe is also developing a Landscape database – ELCIS - inspired by Herein and this should be available soon. For more information you may wish to consult the Council of Europe website: Landscape.
