| Sumario: | [EN] The Valencian barracks constitute one of the living examples of vernacular Mediterranean architecture. Throughout history, they have been a part of the social reality in the Valencian Community as a reflection of its inhabitants, their professions and their way of understanding and exploiting the land. Although this architecture reached its maximum expansion in the 19th century, the barrack started to be replaced during the 20th century due to many social and economic changes. Currently, only a few examples are still preserved, a disappearance explained mainly due to the loss of use. Nevertheless, the resilient capacity of the vernacular architecture could turn into a fundamental tool in the recovery, providing new uses to the barracks that could assure the survival of this architectural heritage that preserves a large part of the popular constructive knowledge of Valencian people and that represents an example for the future of sustainable architecture which is a result of its surroundings and its existing resources. |
