Abstract Albania has e pioneering and old tradition in the field of protection and preservation of the historic city centers. Since 1970 several cities were declared as museum cities and the buildings listed for protection under the preservation easement. Among these, a special role has the city of Kruja for its role in the national history and for the value of its center within the walls. Beside the period of transition, from the end of thedictatorship until today, there was aproblematic gap for the historical architectural heritage. The lack of financial investments and specialized operator, combined with the degradation of the buildings, created a significant damage in the heritage. Nowadays, the situation hasconsiderably changed for the better, even thoughthe lack of public investment is still present. In this context, the study is based on the reconsideration of the historical site and the constructed building in Kruja, Albania, by the State and Academia as a collaboration between the Institute of Cultural Monuments and Epoka University, aiming to raise awareness among young people and create new generations of architects capable of operating in the field of restoration and heritage management. Through the case study of the Dollma tekke in Kruja, this paper presents preservation methods for the architectural heritage, first of all the study and the relief of the historical buildings as a form of protection and the base for a project of restoration.

An Assessment on the Importance of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Holistic Conservation of Architectural Heritage (Mimari Mirasın Bütüncül Korunmasında Somut Olmayan Kültürel Mirasın Önemi Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme)2022 •
Architectural heritage includes buildings that have survived from the past as an important part of cultural heritage and that inspire today's architectural understanding with their original qualities. In this context, architectural heritage, which is closely related to other components of cultural heritage, has become increasingly important in terms of architectural preservation in recent years. Components of cultural heritage are considered as tangible and intangible cultural values. Among them, tangible cultural values constitute qualified works such as architectural structures, archaeological sites, objects that are the product of a certain craft. Intangible cultural values, on the other hand, consist of original data such as traditions/customs, rituals/festivals/ceremonies, beliefs and crafts along with the way of life. All these values are directly or indirectly related to each other. In this sense, it is not possible to consider tangible and intangible cultural heritage values separately from each other. Architectural heritage includes information about design and construction such as plan, facade, materials and construction techniques; It also contains data on many intangible cultural heritage values, such as the culture of living and use inside the buildings, the shaping of the plan scheme according to this culture and also the crafts depending on the way of production, the design of the facade features to reflect the understanding of art and built environment of the period. From this point of view, the aim of the study is to reveal the intangible cultural heritage values that the architectural works contain as tangible cultural heritage and to draw attention to the necessity of protecting the said heritage in all aspects. Within the scope of the study, various examples in which the relationship between architectural and intangible cultural heritage values are clearly seen in various parts of the world and Anatolia are discussed. The method of the study is primarily scanning the literature on cultural and architectural heritage; At the same time, the examples where this heritage can be observed are researched through relevant sources and evaluated by observing on site. In addition to this, legal studies developed for the protection of architectural heritage in the world and in Turkey have also been examined and the points that refer to the necessity of preserving intangible cultural heritage are especially discussed. As a result, it is thought that the study will contribute to the holistic preservation of architectural values, which are the common heritage of the whole world, together with the intangible cultural heritage they contain.
Isparta hosted the Alevi - Bektashi Culture and has many Dede Tombs built within the framework of the Veli Cult. İsmail Dede Tomb, located in Yakaören Village of Isparta Provincial Center, which is one of the settlements with Alevi-Bektashi culture such as Gümüşgün, Aliköy and Uluğbey, is one of these tombs. Since there is no foundation charter or inscription, the exact date the building was built is unknown. Although it is known that the tomb of Şeyh İsmail Efendi is dated 1617 A.D. (H. 1026) and the tombstone belonging to the grandfather’s assistant in the courtyard is dated 1891 M. (H. 1309), the plan type of the building, its façade architecture and the materials and structural techniques used in its construction indicate the date of construction of the building. shows that it does not coincide with these dates. The tomb, which is thought to have been repaired or largely reconstructed in the 1960s, needs to be restored while preserving its originality. However, deep cracks have formed in the body walls as a result of both the deterioration caused by faulty repairs and the direct contact of adverse climatic conditions with the structure (insufficient top cover and drainage systems in the garden). In particular, the movement of the stones on the northern façade of the building indicates that the building is in danger of collapsing towards the north at any moment, and it urgently needs comprehensive repairs. Tomb restoration works initiated within the scope of Isparta Governorship are carried out by the Provincial Directorate of Culture and Tourism. The Provincial Directorate of Culture and Tourism consults with relevant institutions and organizations and assigns the preparation of projects in the most comfortable and easy way for the public benefit to restoration expert architects. The survey, restitution and restoration projects of the Ismail Dede Tomb were also drawn by authors who made an agreement with the Provincial Directorate of Culture. The spatial and structural problems of the building were mentioned, and then the intervention decisions were given to eliminate these problems and to ensure that the building could continue its current function as close to the original space as possible. It is aimed to transfer the Ismail Dede Tomb, one of the few Dede Tombs in this region where the Alevi - Bektashi people live, to future generations with its original function and structural elements, and to contribute to the literature on the conservation of cultural heritage.
