摘要：Utilizable architectural details can highlight the character of
a historical building, but they can also change the perception of the total
view of this particular building or even the whole district. That is why
architectural elements installed in old buildings or old, historical quarters
are a challenge for designers and contractors. It is possible to achieve
a good and well-accepted effect, but one condition must be abided - the
investor must try to get all elements harmonized. The elaboration of
a concept requires a good knowledge about both building history and detail
character. The paper shows an application of engineering elements in the
Old Town of Prague. The research was conducted in the historical part of
Prague, where even on the first look you can see scrupulousness about all
elements of buildings, the most useful elements related to urban networks
and object furnishings are not incompatible with the historic character of
the city. A widespread public debate on renovation of constructions,
showing good and bad examples of retrofitting, would allow avoiding
common mistakes and link modernity with historical value.
