The European Archaeological Centre and the Bibracte Museum house the stages of a complete heritage chain, from the exploitation of excavation data to the promotion of the results of the research to a wide public. The Archaeological Centre has the equipment and skills to facilitate field investigations and the processing, study and conservation of archaeological data and objects. The museum, the gateway to the site, explains the results of the excavations and presents, like no other, the daily life at Bibracte, but also the history of Celtic Europe in the process of urbanisation and the approach of the archaeologists. The museum is also the venue for a diversified cultural programme, which proposes to create artistic and cultural bridges through contemporary creations, exhibitions, concerts, conferences, etc. It welcomes 50,000 visitors a year, including around 8,000 children and young people who are looked after by the public service.

The challenge of Museomix is to get together teams with completely different members, a Fab Lab, and state-of-the-art technologies to create prototypes in just 72 hours.

The municipality of Alcácer do Sal is located in the Alentejo region of Portugal. As part of its strategy to work closely with culture, heritage and archaeology, as a true "Historic City" that it is, it started working with the PITCHER project at the beginning of 2024, translating the open educational resources into Portuguese. Another aim is to try to implement the translated resources in schools and provide teachers with all the information they need to continue using the resources in the future. This cooperation is very important in a region with many archaeological sites, so that education can be a vehicle for teaching and raising awareness of the importance of heritage.
