About FRH

FRH, a non-faith organization open to all, brings together those working to protect religious heritage across Europe.

Future for Religious Heritage (FRH) is committed to reaching the goal of engaging Europeans from every community in the heritage and culture of Europe. Founded in 2008, FRH is a non-profit, non-religious, organisation dedicated to building a Pan European Network of heritage connections devoted to providing European citizens with opportunities to participate in, and appreciate, all forms of heritage and culture throughout Europe.

Through an Annual General Assembly each year, hundreds of its members meet at a landmark heritage location in Europe to celebrate the rich heritage of Europe. As the only European Network for Historic Places of Worship, FRH is a leading voice for the active and engaged cultural life of all Europeans. The Network provides support, tools and resources to a wide variety of cultural organizations to help them unite the Continent of Europe through engagement in its heritage.
