Landscape gives urban heritage a context, while urban heritage and urbanscape emerged from the same landscape. Heritage sites are found in urban setting, seacoast and hinterland, in landscapes of different complexity and uniqueness. Perceiving relationship between urbanscape, seascape and hinterland landscape gives possibility to identify heritage sites which are established simultaneously in urban, cultural and natural landscape. Scope of research is spatially defined in this landscape of strong relationship between urban and natural which define a unique place identity.
Relationship between heritage sites and landscape is not recognised, either in spatial planning, management or related tourism. Evaluation is needed to acknowledge relations between heritage sites and urban context, between heritage sites and hinterland landscape, and their interrelations. Lost connections and relationship between heritage sites and landscape of their historical origin and cultural place of the community presence, heritage sites also lose their sense of place, intangible heritage, authenticity and identity of the place.
In literature overview, three dimensions of landscape are established: physical, social and symbolic. Research is based on urbanism, spatial planning and architecture point of view, which focus on physical dimension of landscape. Relationship between heritage sites, and urbanscape, and/or landscape is defined in overlapping of physical with social dimension (use and inhabitation of landscape), and overlapping of physical with symbolic dimension (embodiment of meaning in landscape).
Research aim is to present meaning of heritage sites, and models for enhancement and revival of heritage sites identity in relation to both urbanscape and hinterland landscape. Proposed case studies are selected from Croatian Eastern Adriatic Coast and Spanish Atlantic coast of Galicia.
The research will provide present meaning of heritage site and models of maintaining existing identity through restoring the neglected identity, and through redefining the lost identity of heritage sites in urban, sea and hinterland landscape.
