Research into applying digital technology for educational purposes supports raising interest in cultural heritage. That approach, which involves user interaction with content through modern technology, is an engaged learning experience. Digitized cultural heritage attracts new audiences and motivates different social groups, especially young people familiar with digital technologies, to find greater interest in heritage, create new educational opportunities, and raise awareness of the values of cultural heritage. The paper presents the results of the project A virtual journey through Novi Sad implemented by the research team of the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad. Digitization is recognized as an opportunity to improve accessibility and the more active use of knowledge about cultural heritage. The project is focused on developing an innovative technological and methodological approach to digitizing cultural heritage, through multidisciplinary cooperation between scientific research institutions, cultural institutions, city administration, and civil society. The importance of the project is reflected in its scientific contribution to the field of heritage studies, with an emphasis on the application of digital technologies in the presentation and preservation of cultural heritage. In addition, the project output had a concrete application within the Novi Sad European Capital of Culture 2022 program.
