Summary

Reproductions of heritage buildings, such as the Mudejar tower from Utebo (Zaragoza), can serve as a strategy for revaluing and conserving architectural heritage. This study reveals that while reproductions like those in Barcelona's Pueblo Español exhibit subtle to profound alterations, they maintain a connection with their originals, preserving elements of identity even when integrated into new contexts. The research compares the Utebo tower's original and its reproduction, analyzing changes in design, materials, or spatial adaptation. Findings suggest that such reproductions not only facilitate learning through comparison but also offer insights into architectural reinterpretation within expository settings.
