Summary
A denkmalpflegerisches Sanierungs- und Nachnutzungskonzept for the Stadtgartenvilla in Baden, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site 'Great Spa Towns of Europe,' demonstrates that restoring historical structures can simultaneously preserve cultural heritage and meet modern urban needs. The study highlights the tension between the villa's original design and recent alterations while proposing a multifunctional reuse strategy that integrates gärtnerischen operations, administrative functions, and seasonal public events in the Palmenhaus. By emphasizing reversibility and adherence to historical spatial configurations, the concept enhances both the monument's value and its adaptability for contemporary use.
