Abstract

This paper presents a project delivered in collaboration between the Conservation Department of the Ministry of Culture and the Trogir Fire Department. Although originally planned as a one-year project, with the aim of revising the existing Fire Risk Assessment for the historic city core of Trogir, it surpassed its initial framework, both in terms of activities and the partners involved. Fire-fighters and conservators worked together to engage the entire civil protection sector in the city, and to involve the local community through a disaster imagination game and InSight workshops. Moreover, the project has grown into a national programme for fire mitigation in heritage sites, supported by both the Ministry of Culture and the Croatian Fire Association.
