TALK SERIES
Memory of Displaced Cultural Heritage

Throughout 2025, as part of the cultural project Nostra et Mundi, a series of talks will be held across all the provinces of Castile and León with a threefold objective: to enhance public awareness of the project, to contribute to the enrichment of local culture, and to facilitate citizens’ access to the Castilian and Leonese heritage dispersed around the world.
