Tilskudd til kulturverntiltak

This is a grant program from Lillestrøm municipality in Norway that provides financial support for cultural heritage preservation projects. The grant is designed to support restoration and conservation of buildings and sites that are listed in the municipality's cultural heritage registries. The program aims to preserve culturally significant buildings and environments according to heritage conservation principles, which means repairing rather than replacing building elements. When replacement is necessary, the same type of materials and design as the originals must be used as much as possible. The grant is available to voluntary organizations registered in the municipality's registry as well as private owners of listed cultural heritage buildings and environments. Applications are evaluated based on heritage value, degree of self-contribution (work and capital), visibility in public spaces, whether the grant is essential to initiating the project, and accessibility to the public. Ordinary maintenance and care are not eligible for funding, and applications must be submitted before work begins.
