This book connects a diverse array of studies exploring the interpretation, preservation, and revitalization of cultural heritage across historical, architectural, and community dimensions. Organized into five thematic sections, this book examines how built and intangible heritage—from Roman amphitheaters and traditional textile workshops to railway stations and cemeteries—can be better understood, protected, and adapted for contemporary relevance. Through global case studies spanning Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, contributors address pressing issues such as adaptive reuse, heritage in conflict zones, community-led conservation, and the safeguarding of disappearing cultural practices. Special emphasis is placed on integrating heritage with education, sustainability, public awareness, and resilience planning. This book is essential reference for academics, heritage professionals, urban planners, and policymakers seeking innovative frameworks for interpreting value, enhancing accessibility, and promoting inclusive stewardship of cultural legacies in the twenty-first century.
