Each year the History of Architecture and Built Environment (HABE)
research group at the University of Edinburgh welcomes guest speakers and colleagues to
present an evening seminar on their research. The events are a fantastic
opportunity to hear some of the world's leading architectural historians discuss the latest developments in their own research and those in the field more widely. These events are free
to attend, and attract an international online audience as well as being
a way for all those with an interest in the history
of the built environment to come together as a community.
There are five seminars this semester, running at roughly bi-weekly intervals between the 29 of January up to the 25th of March. For more information on the series, our speakers for this semester, and details of how to join, please visit:
