LE MURA SPAGNOLE DI MILANO: GLI INTERVENTI CONSERVATIVI (2006-2009) E LA LORO NEGAZIONE

Abstract

In this paper is presented the methodological approach to the conservation works of the Spanish defensive walls. The approach arise from a path of knowledge and valorisation, deriving its meaning from the witnessing value; this latter, being denied during the past centuries, applies to surveys and pays attention to materials data, which addressed the conservation project towards more correct methodologies. The problem of the monument material persistence applies in the direction of “planned conservation”, that is a constant care, passing form a “correction” phase, foreseen with the restoration works, to a “maintenance” phase. Such a phase is currently still denied.
