The 30th Conference on Cultural Heritage and New Technologies (CHNT) will take place in Vienna, Austria from the 3rd-5th November 2025.
CHNT is renowned annual international event, fostering interdisciplinary exchange in the fields of documentation, research, management, and conservation of cultural heritage. Originally founded by Stadtarchäologie Wien (Urban Archaeology Vienna), CHNT grew into a major event for archaeologists and is now managed by the National Committee of ICOMOS Austria with support from the Austrian Focal Point for World Heritage at the Federal Ministry for Arts, Culture, Public Service, and Sport.
