Summary
A comprehensive analysis of the Lesehof Mauternbach, a 15th–16th century denkmalgeschützte structure in the Wachau Cultural Landscape, reveals insights into its architectural history and potential for sustainable reuse. The study combines archival research with detailed building documentation to reconstruct the object's development, culminating in a 'Baualtersplan' that maps its evolution over centuries. Crucially, it evaluates future scenarios for residential adaptation while strictly adhering to UNESCO and Austrian heritage conservation guidelines, demonstrating feasible extensions and minimal interventions that preserve historical integrity.
