Hidden Stories of Private Historic Houses

23. 04. 2022

In 2022, EHH created this new initiative for the European Heritage Weeks. The idea behind this project was to offer more than a basic house tour. We wanted to spotlight the passion, talent, courage and hard work of our owners, and to show what makes their home a truly special place.

With participants from Czechia, France, Belgium, Ireland and Germany, our audience could get a glimpse of the many interesting facts and life of historic house owners across Europe.
