abstract = "Given the impressive number of towers in the wider surroundings of the considered one, the intervention aims to establish a systemic proposal for solving the problem of restoring examples of this precious fortification building heritage. In addition to the intervention itself, it is also planned that the towers will be connected to each other in a unique tourist system by introducing a navigable cultural route, that is, the possibility of an integral tour by cruise and occasional disembarkations. It was established that the towers are lined up along the coast often enough that they can be declared as a kind of piers on the mentioned cultural route. It is recognized that the access platform or dock is an element that can be applied multiple times, invariant in relation to immediate topographic conditions that vary from tower to tower. Also, for the universal element of the intervention, a stair element deconstructed from the remains of architectural heritage from the environment and re-purposed into a multifunctional one was adopted. It was introduced dominantly so that the tower could be seen separately and from a distance in its surroundings. In addition, at the same time, it is a viewpoint towards the sea, but also an auditorium for watching lectures during info tours in the form of wall projections. An elaborate element, all penetrations through the wall mass as well as the fences are artistically united by the use of corten. The newly introduced wall mass is in the form of gabions filled with crushed native stone. The proposed system or solution concept makes it possible to ensure that users can reach different heights and positions of the tower, regardless of the degree of devastation of the tower, the typology and morphological characteristics of the tower, be it circular, square or polygonal. This was achieved precisely by placing the zone of communication, that is, the function of movement, in the belt of the facade, more precisely within the imagined extension of the wall mass. Walkways are inserted into the double skeleton, and in this way, the possibility of hypothetically infinite movement, as well as reaching unimagined vistas, is first of all upgraded and built. The proposed intervention is not a unique solution, on the contrary, it is applicable to a wide range of cases. It tries to overcome any clumsiness in the sense of restitution of the initial volume of the tower as one of the basic archival unknowns by leaving the possibility to create the impression of an infinite series of facade elements. Precisely because the aforementioned information is absent, a gesture of volume is established that indicates the impossibility of apparent determinacy and finitude not only of volume but also of any other finitude, the stringing system comes to the fore, whereby the proposed contour of the facade is only one sequence in a wide spectrum of possible contours of the final layers wall mass.",
