We wish to encourage owners (irrespective of whether their building has been formally granted the status of cultural heritage or not) to manage the inheritance left to them by their ancestors responsibly and to strive to preserve it for future generations. (Future) investors all too frequently encounter obstacles at the very start, i.e. when they decide to carry out a particular intervention on a building such as regular maintenance, renovation, restoration or perhaps even the construction of a new building. Many find it hard to navigate through the complicated procedures, are not aware of all of the restrictions that they could encounter even before initiating the investment or during it. Furthermore, the knowledge of the correct use of platy limestone as a building material is being lost with the ever decreasing use of the stone.
