Question 11109 — cultural heritage

Summary

Ms. Jacqueline Dubois draws the attention of the Minister of Culture to the implementation of a unique system for the restoration of historic monuments for municipalities with less than 2,000 inhabitants. Presented during the presentation of the multi-annual strategy in favor of heritage, an incentive fund with 15 million euros for the heritage of small municipalities was set up. If many architectural treasures rise in the smallest villages in France, the cost of protection and renovation work is sometimes too high for communities to bear. The weight that such investments represent in relation to the overall budget of a small municipality is sometimes overwhelming, despite other existing aid measures. Local elected officials are concerned about the degradation and endangerment of local heritage which awaits a roof repair or even saving a damaged altarpiece. Also, by virtue of the responsibility that falls on everyone to save historical heritage, it is important to assure local elected officials who are sometimes worried about the scale and challenge of the task, that the State is at their side, by widely disseminating the terms and purpose of this fund. She asks him what the Government's strategy is so that small municipalities are informed of the existence of this fund which allows State participation of up to 80% of the cost of the work for the monuments most in danger, and if it can confirm a lasting commitment of the State in favor of the classified and protected sites of these rural communities including a financial participation likely to help them in their heritage initiatives.
