Current activities
- Providing access to the 450 Limburg charters (verifying their authenticity, reading, translating, analyzing their content, and explaining them in modern language).
- Gradually building a website where, in about five years, all Limburg charters will be available, complete with clear explanations of their contents and possible connections to a broader context.
- Publishing scholarly charter books, organizing exhibitions, installing QR code plates, and sharing findings through other analog and digital media to engage the public.
- Contributing to educational programs of all kinds, at all levels, and for all age groups.
