Abstract
Adaptation and reorientation of historic buildings is a current trend in modern practice. Many buildings lose their original functionality due to economic transformations, changes in legislation and technological developments. Moral and technical deterioration is most often observed in historic residential, industrial, strategic and utilitarian structures. Usually, such objects are adapted to commercial areas and cultural and educational needs, as it often helps to preserve their historical value and integrate them into the modern urban environment. The analysis of foreign experience demonstrates new theoretical and practical approaches to preservation and reorientation of the architectural heritage.
Purpose: The study of the experience in adaptation of historic buildings in Spain at the beginning of the 21st century.
Practical implication: This direction provides an opportunity to obtain new knowledge and methodological basis for finding an actual function for historical objects, including the experience of our country.
