Welcome to the Digital Photo Library of the Regional Policy Directorate-General of the European Commission

The images you will find in this digital library are the fruit of several years' work and illustrate typical regional development projects in different parts of the European Union, co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (or by the Cohesion Fund). At the same time it contains photographs of situations in certain candidate countries which could be susceptible to pre-accession or ISPA action.

We hope that you will enjoy discovering these projects and that the images will help you gain a better understanding of the support provided by the European Union to the development of your region. Please do not hesitate to forward your comments and questions.
