Résumé (en anglais)

The most debated question in relation to the restoration of historic monuments is about reconstruction. There is a long list of doubts: Are we allowed at all to reconstruct a destroyed monument or part of it? To what extent? Should the reconstructed part be just like the original was? If no, then what should it be like? If we reconstruct, can the end result be regarded as a monument? If not, then what is it? All this has been closely connected to the question of authenticity, especially since UNESCO made it one of the cornerstones of declaring that something is part of the World Heritage. It would be banal to claim at this forum that statutes of monument restoration in the form of the Venice Charter have existed since 1964. Indeed, the Charter provides reliable guidelines for restorers about restorations and conservations. This document has almost become a classic, it sets an example because - amongst many other things - it does not contain dogmatic, rigid rules. Instead, it offers an opportunity for the expert to analyse and review the situation. Every monument is different, and each should be treated differently - this is what the Venice Charter suggests.
