This report is based on the findings of a study that was commissioned by the European Commission (Directorate General - Education and Culture) with the following objectives: documenting past European Cities and Capitals of Culture; making observations on variations between cities; and offering a factual analysis based on documented information, questionnaires and interviews.
The study focuses primarily on the 21 cities that held the title of European City of Culture (ECOC) from 1995-2004. For completeness, the report also refers to the longer-term impacts of the ten European Cities of Culture designated during the period 1985-1994, and to the European Capitals of Culture designated under new EU procedures for 2005-2008. The findings are based on research using the main methods of document search, survey questionnaires and interviews.
