This contribution addresses the theme of contemporary school heritage in inner areas, interpreting the school as a cultural infrastructure, a civic landmark, and a device for territorial cohesion. The research adopts the Montagna Materana as a laboratory for experimentation aimed at developing new “educational spaces” capable of redefining the relationship between architecture, pedagogy, and community. Through surveying, critical observation, and a multiscalar analysis of school buildings, the study investigates the transformations of small schools in Basilicata, highlighting their strategic role in processes of social and territorial regeneration. School heritage is thus interpreted as a dynamic and evolving system, open to new ways of inhabiting, learning, and building community.
