In this paper we have analysed what has been done to promote accessibility to cultural heritage in Europe and, more specifically, in Italy. Some projects, activities and initiatives aimed at reducing, if not eliminating, physical, sensorial and intellectual barriers will be briefly presented in order to give an overview on the efforts already made in this direction. On the basis of the key elements of cultural heritage and accessibility, the projects will be briefly evaluated in order to reflect upon the direction in which the issue of accessibility is being addressed in terms of design.
