Paesaggi militari della Sardegna tra XVIII e XX secolo. Scenari di riconversione e di riuso integrato

The process of decommissioning happened between the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries has caused the radical transformation of consolidated Mediterranean military landscapes. Thus, this process of worldwide relevance has become the occasion for rethinking military structures, actually in disuse, as material and technological witness of the modern age. In this context, the present contribute illustrates the results of an interdisciplinary research focused on the Sardinian military heritage and its recognition in terms of location, typology, chronology, state of conservation and uses. Forts built during the Savoy period, defence shelters appeared in the World War II as well as the numerous barracks define a complex heritage mainly obsolescent that, widely distributed all over the region, can certainly offer new opportunities of reuse. Experiences of rehabilitation have been examined in order to offer possible models or design hints towards the definition of future scenarios of reuse and enhancement of the Sardinian military heritage.
