Resumo:[EN] The Old Towns of our cities are the origin of contemporary cities. The study of their evolution has been related to the comparative graphic analysis of the various moments or stages of their shaping in time and space. This research, which in some cases proposes the idea of graphic reconstitution of the urban shape, is being independently developed in various research centers across Europe in an attempt to recover, from the graphic, the idea of lost heritage, as a contribution to the citizens right to know the legacy of their ancestors and value it. Far from an isolated fact, the revaluation of urban heritage or even historical urban landscape, was highlighted by the European Union at the 2005 Framework Convention in Faro (Portugal), pointing out the importance of the contribution of the cultural heritage to society and human development. This work aims to justify the reasons why these objects of research are truly relevant to contemporary society.
