The recovery of barracks: conservation of cultural heritage and a resource for society - The study of Italy’s military heritage is of great importance a heterogeneous set of areas and properties distributed throughout the nation in consideration of the process of abandonment currently in progress, in order to insert it in a new functional system which respects the value of the buildings and is consistent with local and community objectives. Barracks built between the Unification of Italy (1861) and the Second World War (1945) constitute the subject matter of the study: they show high construction quality and serial characteristics with regard to the morphology, plan layout, structural conception and building technologies. The formal dignity and state of conservation of the buildings, the dimension of the free areas and the favourable positioning in urban contexts often on the edge of city centres and on main transport routes offer functional, economic and strategic opportunities. That is why a rational process of conversion must be defined which exploits the specific features of each individual barracks as part of the redevelopment of urban centres and communities, thanks to a ‘meta-planning’ approach and to the opportunities provided by new urban planning instruments.
