【 摘 要 】

The purpose of a conservation act is to secure cultural heritage so that the associated cultural values can be passed on to future generations. Hence, conservation that is defined as “keeping alive” in a manner to include yesterday, today, and tomorrow is regarded as a cultural act. Therefore, one of the major justifications for conservation is to ensure the integrity of the values of monumental building in relation to the authenticity, documental, historic, architectural, usage, and continuity values. In order to actively carry out conservation, the monumental building, considered to be cultural heritage entities, should be assigned a function and opened for public service, which would ensure human-building integration. However, the most important point to bear in mind is to achieve the correct balance between conservation and functional modification in such a way that the structure will not lose its authenticity. Within the framework of conservation criteria, it is quite important to determine the success in the preservation of the authenticity, as well as the satisfaction of the new users. The performance level of monumental building, which can also be defined as “cultural perception performance,” will aid in measuring the manner in which different characteristics--authenticity, symbolic, historic, and cultural values of a building are perceived by the users. Within the scope of this study, the Buruciye Madrasah, a single-story Anatolian Seljuk period building with open courtyard plan located in the Central Anatolian Region within the boundaries of the city of Sivas, was examined. The building used today as Handicraft Market and Tea Garden. The cultural perception performance of this cultural heritage building was assessed in order to evaluate whether the authenticity values of the building were accurately perceived by the users, within the limits of the physical environment that the building is located in.
