摘要:A palimpsest of heritage legacies, the city of Kenadsa superimposes the traces of the historical claim. This sedimentation of the built environments that persists in the urban landscape, tells a story and reflects a cultural blend that shapes its architectural identity. First known by its ‘zaouia’, the spiritual pilgrimage place of the believers and faithful of the saint "sidi Mohamed Ben Bouziane"; the cultural and religious attractiveness of the city of Kenadsa is hastily transposed into economic and industrial bloom following the discovery of coal making it the first bright city in Africa proliferating work for a cosmopolitan population. Today, it only bears witness to this rich history with a few fallows, including the industrial wasteland at the entrance to the city. Left to its own devices for a long time, abandoned without any positive intervention, this wasteland confers a negative perception of the post-industrial landscape. Therefore, the objective of this work is to find a way to preserve the historical and cultural value of brownfield sites, thus ensuring the sustainability of industrial sites. To do this, a documentary and then participatory historical approach will be used.
