Architettura nel paesaggio. Studi e proposte per la conservazione e la valorizzazione del patrimonio architettonico di Anacapri

Architectural values and landscape of Capri motivate particular attention to be given to the preservation of local historical and artistic heritage, intended as a factor of development of productive and cultural activities. The island has a particularly complex geo- morphological structure, with vast plateauxin which Anacapri emerges. The castle of Barbarossa, dating back the tenth century, despite the layers and mutilations suffered, is a historical key factor, in harmony with the surrounding landscape of monte Solaro. At the foot of the castle, the first small centres developed, while the farmland with rural buildings arranged towards the coast. The contribution analyzes the possibilities relating to new devel- opment and exploitation of cultural and environmental systems linked to small agricultural structures that mark the coastal territory for the promotion of responsible tourism; the strengthening and enhancement of local systems and the consequences on the agricultural peculiarities; the Consortium reorganization of services related to tourism. While important for the local economy tourism cannot take a single item of revival of these structures, being known as an inter- mittent and seasonal activities, subject to constraints arising from external dynamics. It seems a crucial development possibilities, which combining together experiment conversion models of rural comfortable and various functions. Think back to a diffuse and polycentric network offering dif- ferentiated services in each of the facilities analyzed, reconstituting this way the variety and complexity of the offer of a medium- sized city. The networks can differentiate even for themes: the energy; the already mentioned environmental tourism; the agri- cultural production. Rural scenario is relevant and the formation of networks of cooperation looks more critical than ever if you want to achieve an effective enhancement of production and their social and cultural context.
