Abstract

The restoration of the transept and the hermitage of La Concepción in Enciso was produced after a process between the years 2005 and 2008; in addition of the project of the archaeological intervention, there are other works as a historic and artistic studio and an archaeological supervision; also the restoration of the original paving of the indoor flooring and the wall paintings which appeared during the rehabilitation process. This experience is one of the examples of collaboration of a multidiscipline team and it’s very useful to solve properly the posed problems during the restoration. The monumental composition is formed by a transept with a templete from the XVI century, and a hermitage leant it up which is more modest as architectural quality and it was built immediately after. It was improved in the XVIII and XIX centuries. In this article, which is a summary of the historic and artistic studio, it analyses the historic evolution of the monument, its chronology and its main characteristics not only typological but also constructive.
