CASE STUDIES OF THE DAY

Discover the three case studies of the day selected for you by the SBE21 Heritage Team and visit the HiBERatlas (Historic Building Energy Retrofit Atlas) to discover other best practice renovation projects.

The HiBERatlas database of exemplary energy efficient interventions in historic buildings is open to contributions from architects. Want to share your renovation project? Please read the conditions.

1 / Ansitz Mairhof – Italy

The rural house is characterised by its crenellated gables on the narrow sides, net vaulted corridors on ground and upper floor, as well as original “Stuben” and wooden ceilings with over 800 year old beams. The farm was awarded with the ITAS prize in 2018 for its first-class retrofit measures

2 / Sankt Christoph – Germany

The former farmhouse was built in 1779 and it was one of the first farmhouses to be listed as a monument in Bavaria. The aim was to renovate the former farmhouse in a monument protecting and energetic manner, without losing the character and the substance of the historic building…

3 / Holyrood Park Lodge – United Kingdom

This project was the thermal upgrade and general improvements to a Listed property in Edinburgh dating from 1858. It was a whole house approach where the retention of historic fabric was a priority. Good results have been obtained and an improved energy rating (EPC) has been achieved…

PLAN YOUR FIELD TRIP

Have you ever wondered how to renovate historic buildings to achieve high levels of energy efficiency while protecting their heritage significance at the same time? Come with us on a virtual tour of best-practice renovation examples! You can navigate through three different “EnerCulTours”, each of them dedicated to a specific theme:

  • Farmhouses in South Tyrol (red route): Explore how the historic value and charm of an old farmhouse can be preserved and transferred to today’s quality of living.
  • Solar energy in alpine historic buildings (green route): Explore solutions for photovoltaic or solar thermal systems integrated into the envelope of historic buildings.
  • Industry, trade, and education buildings in Europe tour (blue route): Explore historic buildings once used for a particular purpose and see how they were given a new life.

Click on a building and read about its construction type, protection level, age, area and use as well as the refurbishment solutions adopted. The documentation is provided by the HiBERatlas, the best-practice database of exemplary energy efficient interventions in historic buildings.
