- Abstract (Swedish)
- Bakgrund: Kulturhistoriska byggnader har ett särskilt historiskt, estetiskt eller socialt värde och skyddas av regler som begränsar förändringar. Med rätt byggnadsvård och tekiska lösningar kan bevarande kombineras med energieffektiviseringar. Även om bevarande ofta innebär högre initiala kostnader, kan det ge långsiktiga värden både kulturellt och ekonomiskt.
Syfte: Syftet är ett undersöka hur kulturarv, återbruk och återanvändning kan integreras i byggprocesser, med fokus på hållbar och ekonomiskt hållbar renovering av kulturhistoriska byggnader. Arbetet ska även belysa beslutet mellan rivning och bevarnade samt hur detta kan gynna byggherrer genom cirkulära och bevarnadeinriktade stategier.

Syfte: Syftet är ett undersöka hur kulturarv, återbruk och återanvändning kan integreras i byggprocesser, med fokus på hållbar och ekonomiskt hållbar renovering av kulturhistoriska byggnader. Arbetet ska även belysa beslutet mellan rivning och bevarnade samt hur detta kan gynna byggherrer genom cirkulära och bevarnadeinriktade stategier.
Metod(er): I detta teoristudien undersöks de utmaningar och möjligheter med bevarande av kulturhistoriska byggnader i ett modernt och hållbarhetsinriktat samhälle. Genom en fallstudie av tre projekt, Tycho Braheskolan i Helsingborg, Spritfabriken i Eslöv och Magasin 1 i Malmö samt intervjuer med aktörer inom bygg- och bevarandesektorn, identifieras en rad tekniska, juridiska, ekonomiska och sociala faktorer som påverkar beslutet om att bevara, renovera eller riva.
Slutsats: Resultatet visar att det inte finns en lösning som passar alla byggnader och fastighetsägare. Utan bevarande kräver unika lösningar för varje byggnad. Detta leder till att ekonomiskt sätt kan bevarande ofta höja de initiala kostnaderna, men att de på långsiktigt kan de ge utdelning. (Less) - Abstract
- Throughout history, construction practices have reflected the materials, knowledge, and economic resources available at the time. These historical characteristics are now seen as cultural assets worth preserving. However, older buildings often fail to meet modern standards, necessitating significant interventions to comply with today’s regulations.

This thesis explores the challenges and opportunities involved in preserving culturally and historically valuable buildings in the context of a modern, sustainability-focused society. Through case studies of three projects: Tycho Braheskolan in Helsingborg, Spritfabriken in Eslöv, and Magasin 1 in Malmö—combined with interviews with professionals in the building and preservation sectors, this paper identifies a range of technical, legal, economic, and social factors. These factors influence decisions on whether to preserve, renovate, or demolish buildings balancing the need of heritage conservation with mondern demands.
Cultural heritage buildings are protected by legislation due to their historical, aesthetic, or social significance. Regulations such as the Cultural Environment Act (KML), the Planning and Building Act (PBL), and Boverket’s building codes determine the extent of permissible changes. Simultaneously, national goals like Agenda 2030 and Sweden’s environmental objectives emphasize the importance of sustainable renovation practices.
This study shows that preservation can significantly reduce environmental impact by extending the life span of buildings, minimizing waste, reducing energy use, and promoting material reuse. While technically and economically demanding, preservation supports resource efficiency and long-term climate goals. However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution—each building requires tailored strategies based on its condition, value, and context. Though initial costs may be high, long-term economic and environmental benefits make preservation a viable and sustainable investment. (Less)
