Welcome to the Inverness City Heritage Trust website.

Inverness City Heritage Trust is an independent organisation that seeks to promote Inverness’s cultural heritage and historic environment.

The objects for which the Trust was established are to promote and encourage, either on its own or in conjunction with others, the conservation, protection and enhancement of the historic, architectural and landscape heritage within Inverness and its environs by any means all for the benefit of the general public now and in the future.

The Trust’s vision for Inverness’s historic environment is that it should be more widely understood and accessible for residents and visitors, sustained in a good state of repair and used as a catalyst for environmental, cultural, economic and social change for the better for all that live in or visit Inverness.

News

July 2009 - To date, the Trust has committed over £1.28M in capital repair grants in the Highland Capital.  This figure corresponds to at least £3.2M worth of investment in the built environment in Inverness (based on the majority of grants at 40-50%). It is hoped that Trust will be able to build on this spend as well as contributing towards some larger high profile projects in the coming years.

The Trust is very pleased to announce that we will be supporting the annual Doors Open Day events in Inverness again this year.  The first weekend of events will be on Saturday 05 September 2009 with buildings open all across the city. 

ICHT are also very excited about our sponsorship of a new award at the Inverness Civic Trust biennial Awards Scheme for 2009.  The award will be for excellent in a development or restoration project within the City's Conservation Areas.  More details will follow shortly.
