摘要:The question of adaptive reuse offers harmony between a physical character and the function of historicalbuildings. It becomes an effective strategy in order to enhance its sustainability and revitalize the overall appearance of the city. The interaction between the decision of reuse and sustainability aims only to find a balancebetween the project and sustainable development criteria. It mainly relies on the constant evaluation of historical building’s sustainability. In the case of Tlemcen city, the event “Tlemcen Capital of the Islamic Culture”has been a chance for the reuse of monuments in museums in order to endure over time. This documentaims to examine how sustainability changes from one monument to another to identify issues affecting thesustainability of reused monuments. Based on an empirical approach, the document makes a comparativeassessment of six monuments reused as museums in Tlemcen city, which is a qualitative study based mainlyon 80 semi-directive interviews with the three samples of the population: heritage specialists, managers andordinary citizens. The research also began with a document analysis to review the changes brought by historical stratification and an in-situ observation that provides an opportunity to analyze monuments in the field.Finally, the quantitative evaluation was carried out using an evaluation grid containing an evaluation scale andthe set of indicators obtained from the interview conducted. The results obtained from this study reveal thatsustainability varies from on case to another depending on the primary characteristics of the monument thatdirectly affects the sustainability’s score of each criterion that influences the adaptive reuse process. Indeed, thenew “museum” function installed does not ensure by itself a unified sustainability of the studied monuments.
