Restoration means to be engaged in the guardianship of an historical monument and to hand it on to the future as it is, with his total heritage of historical marks, by making it easy to be understood to our posterity in every part, giving readability to his transformations during the times. Likewise we are obliged to set up all technical actions to preserve his structural and surfaces integrity during the times to come. As well restoration is a critical action, which is the more effective the more we deeply know his history (age, building documents, surveys, materials analysis, etc.). Since this informations are basic to restore the past, they will be analyzed and carefully handled in our restoration project, with realistic consciousness of up-to-date technical rules and laws. On-the-spot investigations, technical specimens and papers, as well as specific lectures by professional advisers will help us to carry out our academic projects.
