European Architectural History Network (EAHN)


«The European Architectural History Network (EAHN) supports research and education by providing a public forum for the exchange and dissemination of knowledge on the history of architecture in Europe amongst scholars throughout the world.

The EAHN was set up in 2005 as an open network that anyone with an interest in European architectural history was free to join. Its first actions were to create a website and a quarterly online newsletter. In 2010, the first international conference was held at Guimaraes in Portugal. Now an established biennial event, the 2012 conference takes place in Brussels, and the 2014 conference will be in Turin. In intermediate years, a national conference, linked with a study tour, is held at a different location: in 2011 in Scotland, in 2013 in Brazil.
In 2013, the EAHN launches an on-line peer review journal, and a new website supersedes the newsletter. Membership is open to both individuals and institutions, on payment of the set dues. Governance is by a committee, to which any member may nominate themself, and which normally meets twice a year. There are four elected officers, responsible for the general management of the EAHN, and answerable to the committee. The EAHN maintains a permanent office, located at TU Delft.
The EAHN is affiliated to both the Society of Architectural Historians (USA) and the College Art Association (USA).» (Source: EAHN)
