Abstract
Technical documentation is a necessary prerequisite for the protection and preservation of cultural heritage. For the purposes relating to Garić-grad, it has been developed since the beginning of the 1960s. Parts of interdependent documentation have emerged depending on the priorities regarding either the protection or the establishment of the facts necessary for its implementation. The documentation relating to the state as found, as well as to the archaeological and conservational explorations, tends often to intertwine with the projects and the implementation documentation; this is primarily conditioned by the construction state of Garić-grad. Due to the fact that the organising, conducting and financing of the protection and preservation works on this kind of cultural heritage are exceptionally demanding, there had even been disagreements within the profession. The initial major impetus and enthusiasm died off in the early 1980s, much before the complete and only logical restoration of the central tower. This situation had a direct impact on its catastrophic present state. A new cycle of conducting exploration works and developing documentation necessary for launching the reparation process began in 2009, when the programme of the Croatian Conservation Institute was included in the regular financing plan of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia.
