The Pop-up Pergola – a temporary spatial installation in the public space of the Krš settlement (a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina) in Trebinje, highlights the values of architectural heritage in the direction of sustainable cultural tourism development through activating open public spaces. It represents an experimental model of action in sensitive areas of cultural heritage and simulates possibilities for activating other public spaces using co-creative spatial tactics with the engagement of the local community. The construction was a central part of the first StartArt! Festival, held 3-7/7/2023, within the framework of the H2020 TExTOUR project co-financed by the European Commission.
