Abstract: Edirne is one of the historical capitals of the Ottoman Empire that contains important monumental and architectural masterpieces. Since ancient times, the Thrace region of Turkey has formed part of the routes linking Mediterranean countries and continental Europe to Asia. Edirne is presently on the route of railways and highways connecting Istanbul to Europe. This is a rich region in terms of historical value, and has been a centre of civilisation throughout history. Karaağaç, a small district located outside the city, also contains historical structures and natural attractions and has its own distinct characteristics and cultural heritage. The project discussed in this paper — the redevelopment of the old ice-making factory, one of the major buildings within the settlement — forms part of a wider revitalisation study on the conservation of the current cultural and natural heritage of Edirne/Karaağaç.
