Résumé (en anglais)

This paper is a presentation of one of five case studies for a PhD-thesis on the treatment of Norwegian wooden vernacular with a heritage status. In the case of Røros my objective is to discern a pattern of architectural preservation from the time of the first listings in 1923 and onwards. Røros has endured a century of preservationist involvement, something which had influenced the townscape by the time it achieved World Heritage status in 1980. Through the study of seven listed buildings I document the changes to a loved and seemingly well preserved street scene, reflect on how and why these changes happened, and discuss what they constitute today in terms of authenticity, values and spirit of place.
