TIRANA, June 29/ATA/ The National Institute of Cultural Heritage, in collaboration with university partners and local institutions, held a training workshop on the maintenance of the northern nave mosaic at Basilica B in the Bylis-Klos national archaeological park.
The conservation work involved assessing the mosaic’s condition, consolidating the substrates, securing loose tesserae and cleaning the surface.
The project also doubled as practical training for regional heritage specialists and archaeology students, helping safeguard cultural heritage while empowering the next generation of professionals.
The European Union-funded restoration of the Basilica B mosaic at Bylis Archaeological Park was co-financed and implemented by AICS and the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport. Its Scuola Cantiere (Open Restoration Site) approach elevated the project into an innovative capacity-building experience, seamlessly integrating cultural heritage conservation with hands-on professional training. /r.e/p.s./
