University of Salzburg celebrates cultural monument conservation success University of Salzburg celebrates cultural monument conservation success ========================================================================== CIVIS Highlights 22 aprile 2025 The historic *Arakelots Monastery* and the surrounding medieval settlement in the Tavush region of Armenia have been successfully included in the international *‘Europa Nostra 7 Most Endangered’* programme. University of Salzburg's renowned Armenologist Dr. Jasmine Dum-Tragut sees this nomination as a great opportunity to save the monastery and the settlement from imminent collapse, as well as to contribute to the stabilisation of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border region. ![](/storage/files/april2025-2.png) Foto: Kloster Arakelots | © Jasmine Dum Tragut Hidden in the forests of the Tavush region in northern Armenia, the monastery and the settlement of Arakelots are jewels of the medieval Armenian cultural heritage, says University lecturer Dr. Jasmine Dum-Tragut, who is also the Director of the Centre for the Study of the Christian East. > *Its remote location and proximity to the Armenian-Azerbaijani border underline its historical and geopolitical significance”,* explained Dr. Dum-Tragut Arakelots has now officially been named one of the seven most endangered European cultural monuments in 2025. The Armenologist, who is committed to supporting Armenian culture and research, is convinced that the restoration now made possible by the grant could act as a catalyst for reconciliation, regional stability and sustainable development and offer a way to transform the heritage into a resource for peace and progress. Europa Nostra 7 Most Endangered programme ----------------------------------------- The Europa Nostra 7 Most Endangered programme is a non-governmental initiative dedicated to the protection of Europe's endangered cultural heritage. It aims to preserve endangered sites through raising awareness, independent assessments and recommendations for action. Since its launch in 2013, the programme has identified 63 endangered monuments and heritage sites from 31 countries across Europe. Each selected monument receives an EIB Heritage Grant of €10,000 to implement the agreed conservation measures. **More details are available in the [original article, in German](https://www.plus.ac.at/news/historisches-kloster-und-siedlung-arakelots-in-europas-7-gefaehrdetste-kulturdenkmaeler-2025-programm-aufgenommen/?pgrp=218&is_paged=9).** ### Latest Highlights: [*UNIL seizes the opportunity offered by CIVIS Seed Funding to facilitate access to university for migrants*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/unil-seizes-civis-seed-funding-opportunities-to-facilitate-access-to-university-for-migrants) [*Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Leymah Gbowee: knowledge and compassion together can make a difference*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/nobel-peace-prize-laureate-leymah-gbowee-knowledge-compassion-together-difference) [*Student-led project brings to life a festival committed to the socio-ecological transition at the ULB*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/student-led-project-brings-to-life-a-festival-committed-to-the-socio-ecological-transition-at-the-ulb) [*One million euros for AI research project involving the University of Bucharest*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/one-million-euros-for-ai-research-project-involving-the-university-of-bucharest) [*Common people of Troy drank wine, researchers prove for the first time*](https://civis.eu/en/get-informed/news/people-of-troy-drank-wine-researchers-prove-for-the-first-time) Related news ------------ - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/euko-at-bild-800x600.jpg?token=8b0e68266375a76c6818dc87522df43f)How young people in Austria use AI CIVIS Highlights 23 febbraio 2026 ](https://civis.eu/it/the-civis-newsroom/how-young-people-in-austria-use-ai) - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/internationalisation-800x600.png?token=e1b39583bd55dd3a1eea12a2c04d207d)University of Salzburg wins Internationalisation Award for Staff Mobility and Development CIVIS Highlights 17 dicembre 2025 ](https://civis.eu/it/the-civis-newsroom/university-of-salzburg-wins-internationalisation-award-for-staff-mobility-and-development) - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/satelite-image-800x600.jpg?token=e6954cf1dbd14132e641dd6fb1b92d1d)Earth observation and geoinformatics empower humanitarian response CIVIS Highlights 11 settembre 2025 ](https://civis.eu/it/the-civis-newsroom/earth-observation-and-geoinformatics-empower-humanitarian-response) [Scopri tutte le nostre storie](https://civis.eu/it/the-civis-newsroom) [ Why do Spaniards feel lonely?
