contents The preservation and interpretation of cultural heritage increasingly rely on digital technologies, among which Knowledge Graphs (KGs) stand out for their ability to structure vast amounts of data. However, the construction and expansion of these KGs often face challenges due to the diverse and complex nature of cultural heritage information. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for extending KG resources in the domain of cultural heritage, which we applied to French data. First, we introduce a new knowledge graph in the domain of French cultural heritage, WJoconde, which is distinguished by its multimodality as it integrates both textual and image information of the entities. We further introduce three variants of WJoconde to facilitate downstream research, such as Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC). We also built a comprehensive benchmark for KGC methods on our dataset. Second, we propose a new framework for extending cultural heritage KGs using multi-modal approaches leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs), which includes automated data extraction from unstructured resources combined with a special validation pipeline for grounding the output of both models, to further extend WJoconde. Our results show that by integrating the rich text and image information in cultural heritage data, we can efficiently enhance KGs with high reliability. We open-source all code and benchmark datasets with text and images, as well as the original data with an interactive access point
