"Ancient construction technologies and profiles as a lasting value"

Lecture series "Žaliakalnis wooden houses: the role of the community in preserving local heritage"

What determines the authenticity of a wooden house? Why is it important to preserve old windows, doors, decor, and traditional construction solutions?

We invite you to a lecture by architect, wooden heritage enthusiast, and founder of the Construction Culture Foundation, Povilas Konkulevičius, titled "Ancient construction technologies and profiles as a lasting value".

During the lecture, you will learn: what makes traditional wooden building construction technologies special; what value authentic architectural elements create; how to recognize and preserve historical wooden house details; what mistakes are most commonly made when renovating old wooden buildings.

After the lecture, there will be an open discussion about cultural heritage preservation, community initiatives, cooperation with specialists, and resilience against misleading information about heritage.
