Held on 17 January 2009 at Chateau d’Angers as part of the Large Loire Valley Heritage Sites initiative, this seminar brought together 25 professionals from Loire Valley chateaux to discuss the issue of sensory accessibility to heritage for the visually impaired.
Céline Savaux, head of
training for
Interface
Handicap, presented the results of the study carried out in
2008
which identified a number of assets,
challenges and perspectives. Role plays and simulations allowed
participants to identify possible facilities.
Three tasks then illustrated the
subject with real examples:
-
How the issue has been dealt with
at the
Château des Ducs de Bretagne, by David Chatelier,
head of audience accessibility in Nantes
-
Presentation of
touch tools for the Apocalypse Tapestry, by Damien
Perdriau, head of audiences with handicaps and other specific
requirements at the Château d'Angers
-
Presentation of the
partnership-based operations in which the Château
d'Angers is involved: Office of Tourism (Angers Loire Tourisme)
and associations.
A study day is also planned on
heritage mediation and Information and Communication
Technologies (ICT).
