Rural architecture and enhancement of cultural heritage in Sicily

Journal Title: UcoArte. Revista de Teoría e Historia del Arte - Year 2020, Vol 9, Issue 7

Abstract

The work proposes to examine the results that measures to redevelopment of the cultural heritage brought to the rural architecture and the Sicilian landscape. Attention is focused on the landscape retraining and the possible ability to return centrality and appropriate value to the earth, understood as a multifunctional resource, able to assure essential services for the comfort of the local communities and to preserve the historical, cultural and landscape patrimony. For this purpose, a case study on the subject of the renovation of a Sicilian architectural building is analysed.
