Planning for just and sustainable urban regions, Paris, 8-12th July 2024The paper analyses the restoration process of the former Monastero del Carmine, a complex structure of historical value located in the city of Bergamo (Italy). Built after the 14th century, the Monastery experienced a long period of abandonment from the 18th century until the second half of the 20th century when the property was transferred to the Municipality. In the gradual recovery, the theatre company Teatro Tascabile di Bergamo (TTB) played a significant role. Important for the reuse process was the Special Public Private Partnership activated between the TTB and the Municipality, thanks to which a complex process of material and immaterial regeneration began. The paper presents a public heritage regeneration process highlighting the role of the actors involved and the technicaladministrative tool adopted.
