The 1st CoVHer workshop: DIGITAL 3D HERITAGE – Exploring 3D- Modelling in Education, Documentation and Dissemination was held at the LUX Pavillon in Mainz.

The workshop included the 3rd International Multiplier Event (Abb. 1) accompanying the „Wissenschaftsmarkt“ with an exhibition of student projects on the 9th of September 2023.

The first CoVHer workshop consited of an intense working week with selected students from the CoVHer partner universities in Barcelona, Bologna, Porto, Warsaw, Mainz and additionally Lodz. The groups presented (Fig. 1.) the outcomes of the workshop week and the first project results at the 3rd International Multiplier Event to the public. The event also featured guest speakers from institutions that have a long background in digital 3d reconstruction of lost architecture and digital cultural education for the public (Fig. 2).

The keynnotes by representatives of the companies Pictureworks Studio, TimeRide and La Tempesta gave deep insights in the use of digital 3d reconstructions for serious games and digital cultural education.

The following discussion (Fig. 3) with fine food from local suppliers, provided valuable input for the project.
