Aachen uses its unique geographical location in the heart of Europe for a variety of European initiatives: These range from information on EU topics in the EUROPE DIRECT Information Center to the cross-border network of the AG Charlemagne border region and cooperation at Euregional and European level in Interreg projects.
Through these activities and cross-border cooperation in the key areas of business, mobility, education and energy, Aachen is transforming its historical significance into a modern, dynamic role as a bridge builder in the heart of Europe.
