European Archaeological Park of Bliesbruck-Reinheim - Management and Funding

Management and Funding

This European Archaeological Park is jointly operated by the conseil général of the French département of Moselle and the German district of Saarpfalz. The project receives additional funding from the French Ministry of Culture and Communication, from the German state of Saarland, and from the municipality of Gersheim. The founder of the European Archaeological Park was the late Jean Schaub, an entrepreneur who used private assets to buy up the first tracts of land belonging to the park, protecting them from development and thus saving the relics of the Roman past for posterity.
