Abstract
The tangible cultural heritage encompasses a whole range of architectural property in the form of monuments, ensembles, and sites. This heritage shows features from our territorial construction of the past and also values of historical, social, cultural, even economic character of the community. The layers that have given rise over time to heritage architecture structure a kind of palimpsest, open to knowledge. The skill objective of the Rehabilitation, Restoration, and Pathology course in the Degree in Technical Architecture offered at the European University Miguel de Cervantes focused on developing practical work on historic building. Architectural heritage is, therefore, placed at the center of the teaching scenario, and Project-Based Learning active methodology becomes a valid mechanism of articulation of the teaching–learning process. Taking a real old building complex, for the students to study and share a project, provides an educational immersion context in its physical reality, placing the students in the situation of their future professional practice. It is noteworthy that the memorable experience generated provides skills and learning outcomes as well as awareness of cultural heritage’s value in general, and architectural heritage in particular; cornerstone on which to build the principle of universal preservation of this legacy.
