VMF-IESA Prize 2023
Château de Panloy
Since 2002, IESA arts&culture has partnered with the Fondation Vieilles Maisons Françaises to defend and safeguard unprotected buildings of major interest for history, art history and French heritage, in order to have them listed as historic monuments and thus promote the tourist and cultural enhancement of a heritage site.
Every year, first-year students in the Master’s in Cultural Heritage and Sustainable Tourism at IESA arts&culture carry out an audit at the start of the school year in October to promote several sites selected by IESA arts&culture and the Fondation Vieilles Maisons Françaises, under the supervision of their lead professor Carole Ziem.
The prize is awarded by a jury made up of representatives of the Fondation Vieilles Maisons Françaises and IESA arts&culture. This year they awarded the prize to the Château de PANLOY.
IESA arts&culture works to promote French heritage and pass it on by offering each prize winner a 4-month training course on Heritage Enhancement and Cultural Engineering (worth €13,300), a tourism development study carried out by students of the Master’s in Heritage and Cultural Tourism and a grant worth €2,300 to improve public reception.
The VMF-IESA arts&culture Prize will allow the Château de PANLOY to increase its tourist attendance: a development study will be carried out by Master 1 Cultural Tourism students accompanied by their professor.
