The field of Architectural History and Heritage examines structures and locations through time.
Our focus lies on the designed aspects of the built environment. Crucially, we explore how these constructions reflect broader historical social, cultural, and political narratives, while also addressing current heritage preservation challenges.
What insights do structures and designs offer about bygone eras? How do we interpret them within their historical framework? Our investigative approach utilizes diverse resources:
existing architectural remains
blueprints and technical drawings
documentary evidence
moving images
visual records
We provide exceptional opportunities to study historical architecture.
Instruction incorporates Edinburgh's remarkable urban landscape alongside European and global architectural legacies.
Edinburgh boasts an unparalleled community of architectural history experts who actively research and publish while maintaining teaching responsibilities.
Our faculty members possess specialized knowledge across various eras, including:
antiquity through medieval times
early to late modern periods
