The subject of the study is the preservation and use of defensive towers of the Old City of Kamianets-Podilskyi. Most of the defense towers are on the balance sheet of the National Historical and Architectural Preserve «Kamyanets» and are included in the tourist infrastructure of the city. The location of some of them in hard-to-reach places makes it difficult for tourists to see and visit, which requires finding new approaches to their revalorization.
The scientific novelty is realized by a comprehensive study of the history of the monuments of defensive architecture, which are located on the lower and upper levels of the canyon. The staged evolution of fortification structures in the historical and architectural environment of the city is traced. The results of archaeological and historical-architectural research are summarized. The restoration and adaptation of defensive towers for the modern needs of tourism and cultural recreation is described. We are talking about the means of restoring investment attractiveness with the active inclusion of objects in the tourist infrastructure of the city.
The historical and topographical plans of the city, the results of archaeological research and materials, which include the design work, became the source basis of the research. In order to comprehensively reveal the subject of the study, conservation measures and prospects for revaluing the defense towers of Kamianets-Podilskyi were analyzed. It is written about promising programs and investment proposals.
