Cities of Culture

Cities of Culture are urban areas designated for their artistic and cultural contributions, often highlighted by initiatives or programs that celebrate local heritage, architecture, and diversity. These cities host events, festivals, and exhibitions that promote tourism and community engagement while fostering creativity and cultural exchange. The title can be granted by organizations like the European Union, which aims to enhance cultural visibility and develop local economies. Cities of Culture provide a platform for residents and visitors to experience and appreciate the richness of a region's artistic landscape and cultural identity.
