Abstract
The InterMedit project: Mediterranean Exchange in Antiquity, a bridge between cultures, was born with the aim of creating a space of confluence to highlight the origin of the millenary connection maintained by three regions of the western Mediterranean (the Balearic Islands, the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, and the south of France) through their archaeological heritage from Antiquity. Initially, the idea was to generate a simultaneous exhibition in the three museums through the digitization and creation of 3D printed replicas. With the outbreak of the COVID pandemic in early 2020, the project had to be reoriented and redesigned in a virtual environment to create the immersive virtual exhibition. Finally, in 2024, the project carried out the simultaneous exhibition with replicas of the most outstanding pieces and access to the immersive exhibition of the InterMedit project. This project has made it possible to innovate in the creation of museographic content as a way of integrating a greater diversity of audiences, democratizing access to heritage, enhancing its value, and raising public awareness of the importance of archaeological heritage as a link between territories and cultures.
