Preservation of historic buildings

Preservation of historic buildings involves protecting and maintaining structures that have cultural, architectural, or historical significance. It aims to retain the original materials, craftsmanship, and character of these buildings while ensuring they remain safe and functional. This process often includes careful repairs, restoring damaged elements, and sometimes adapting the building for modern use without compromising its historical integrity. Preservation helps maintain a community's identity, educates future generations, and supports tourism and local pride, fostering a connection between the past and present.
