This article presents a contemporary restoration project for the Architectural Complex of the Church and Ruins of the Convent Nossa Senhora da Conceição in Itanhaém, built between 1699 and 1713 using the stone-and-lime technique. The project aims to preserve its identity while reimagining the ruined spaces. The adopted methodology, the “path of knowledge”, integrates historical research with digital survey, archeologic prospecting, structural and geological analyses, architectural and pictorial surveys and damage assessment. Conducted in collaboration with the Laboratorio Rilievo dell’Architettura at the Università degli Studi di Firenze, the research supports a critical conservation approach grounded in heritage charters. The proposal promotes sustainable restoration while ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the site before intervention.
