Stručni rad
The Old Town of Celje, conservation and presentation suggestion
Zdenko Balog
Sažetak
The old town of Celje falls into the most significant medieval fortresses of the whole Slovenian territory. It is here taken as example of the changes that occur in fortified towns in Middle Europe. Constructed out of pure necessity, these towns rarely abound in stylistically and artistically made details but they do have their functional logic that followed certain changes in style and warring technology. As fire weapons developed, such towns gradually lost their importance and eventually were abandoned soon falling into ruins, very often transformed into quarries. The author discusses possible models of research, conservation and revitalisation of fortresses that could become attractive features of modern life. The text refers to talks on the preservation of the fortress of Veliki Kalnik, recently started by the Municipality of Kalnik.
