Preservation and Projecting Approach for Bursa Yeşil Kulliyyah Madrasa to be used with Museum Function

Abstract

When the process of transferring the architectural heritage to the future in the context of sustainability is examined, the functioning of cultural assets without harming the values of originality, integrity and authenticity can be described as adaptation of past creativity to contemporary life. Adaptation of cultural heritage to new usage is also important in order to enable the community to experience its architectural heritage with all its values and to develop the awareness and belonging of the heritage. In this context, the preservation approach followed during the preparation of the architectural conservation project developed in accordance with the museum concept of the Bursa Yesil Kulliyyah Madrasa, which is proposed to continue its use with the function of the Museum of Turkish Islamic Arts, and the phases of documentation, research, evaluation and projecting in this direction are presented in this paper.
