The project consists in the reinterpretation of the local craft beer tradition following the functional conversion of the forgotten ruins of the city in a micro-brewery that reminds of the presence of the beer cellars belonging to the czech Karel Homolka one century ago. The Romanian heritage faith is fragile because of the poor perception of the monument. It is prohibited to the monument to have its own memory because of the desire to keep it under the current purpose, this way heading itself to ‘’museification’’.To every object there is an own memory, that characterizes it being the instrument of an action. But because of the ‘’museification’’, time stops for it and it ceases to be an instrument that defines an action, loosing itself its identity and becoming an individual and singular entity. The ruins that lay underneath the actual city foundations have their own purpose-of defence and another - systematic one belonging to the actual context or to the moment that it remains in the local memory. In terms of memory, they are the witness that took part to the actual city rising and gave birth to all the ruins functions throughout time. The bar and beer cellar are grounded on the old cellar print keeping as memory the old wooden roof structure as an omnipresent, unfunctional but memorial object. The new proposed architecture stands by the creation of a structural visual harmony between the new with a contemporary expression and the secular old one. The tower rises tender from the ruins, with a respect towards the place history, keeping its memory. Its inner core is characterized by a symbolic vertical promenade with access from the lower courtyard and the upper one. The way is occasionally interrupted by horizontal platforms oriented towards main city places and courtyard. The old known with a fragile character, always dominated by the actual city entity has to be transformed, through known intentions into a new unknown. As an individual element, and without the continuity of a ruin complex, it stands unbalanced. The spatial configuration of the new object follows the verticality, the same verticality of the tower function and it will watch over the city as an representative landmark.
