About The European City of Culture

European City of Culture
We all know that each city is free to determine its own emphases and to organize programs and projects within a time scale and budget which each city must determine. The impact and importance of the European City of Culture concept has grown consistently and cities have been using the designation in relation to other cultural and economic objectives.

To celebrate the turn of the century, the EU designated nine cities of culture for the year 2000. They each presented a rich cultural program related to the needs and tastes of the local and international community. Moreover, they collaborated on various levels and worked closely on a number of joint projects.

This cultural co-operation between European cities was unique and created an unprecedented synergy between three cities in the north, three in the centre and three in the south of Europe.
