Abstract (in English)

The contents of this paper represent an attempt to put forward systematically, various kinds of experience and their adaptation to the urban entity that is Dubrovnik and the circumstances in which restoration work is being carried out. The views and the recommendations advanced here are tentative and open to suggestions and supplementation. This approach which issues from a collective body of knowledge may well serve the general evolution of practice. Conversely, the practical implementation and testing of the methodological approach will make a contribution to its improvement. This mutual influence as between theoretical principles and operational practice will ensure that experience gained in Dubrovnik constitutes a valuable contribution to our contemporary code of practice dealing with the conservation of our cultural heritage. Dubrovnik's status as an item in the UNESCO Register places this obligation upon us.
