🌙 E³UDRES² at the European Night of Museums 2026

How can digital innovation make cultural heritage more accessible, interactive and engaging?

At the UPT Technical Museum, more than 400 visitors had the chance to explore exactly that during the European Night of Museums 2026.

Supported by E³UDRES², the evening brought together technology, education and culture through VR and mixed reality experiences, AR games, digital heritage applications and guided tours around MECIPT-1, Romania’s first academic computer.

Visitors of all ages discovered how Timișoara’s cultural heritage can be experienced in new ways, while also exploring student-created applications such as “Bell Labs Expo”.

A meaningful example of how E³UDRES² connects universities, innovation and regional communities across Europe. 🌍

Passing on the fire of the Talent app 🔥
