Abstract

This paper concerns the redevelopment of an urban space within the historic walls of Feltre, an ancient city located in
the province of Belluno, not far from Venice. It is particularly focused on the disused Oratory of the Canossian Friars,
at the top of the medieval city. The site is now abandoned and degraded, devoid of function and unresolved in form.
It is located close to the city's main square and is bordered by pre-existing buildings of relevant historical importance,
including the Castle, the Napoleonic Stables, the Clock Tower, the Civic Museum and the Church of San Rocco. In another respect, the former Oratory of the Canossian Friars, which was investigated by our research group at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering of the University of Padova, is proposed as a case study regarding the relationship between new and old.
