Urban Evolution of the Built Environment of Craiova

Abstract:

The present article presents a brief analysis of the evolution of the Craiova built fund, focusing on understanding the main poles of attraction and development. The analysis focused on highlighting the functional, economic and social relations between the various elements. Thus, a frame of the evolution of the city was obtained based on the available resources: written sources, configuration plans and in-site observations. Also, the study proposes categories of built heritage protection according to the intrinsic value of the elements, but also to the morpho-genetic relationships that they represent for the local identity.
