Sustainability in historic centres. Analysis of different variables of the built environment

Abstract

Historical centres are cultural environments with unique particularities and characteristics depending on their management and protection. The values projected by these cultural assets focus on traditional and monumental architecture and social and economic matters. In addition, recent studies speak of the environmental value of historic centres as containers of biodiversity. In the current context of climate emergency, preserving this biodiversity, green areas and the elements that make historic centres more resilient to change is fundamental.
