Özet
In Vienna at the beginning of the 20th century, when different debates on modernity were taking place, the art historian Alois Riegl made an important contribution to conservation studies with his 1903 article The Cult of the Modern Monument: Its Nature and Origin, published in 1903. The oscillation of modernity between the understanding of creating a system based on rationality brought about by the Enlightenment and the understanding of accepting the modernization process with all its complexity and contradictions seems to have influenced Riegl's approach in the field of conservation. Riegl tried to reconcile this dual understanding inherent in modernity. In this study, within the framework of Riegl's values theory, it is analyzed which values came to the forefront and which conservation processes were realized in the seven re-functionalized prison buildings (Yedikule Dungeons, Sinop Castle Prison, French Prison, Old Dat4a Prison, British Outpost, Sultanahmet Prison and Ulucanlar Prison) in Turkey. In the analyzed examples, it has been concluded that Riegl's commemorative value comes to the forefront, but other values should also be activated in the conservation process of a building. In the future conservation processes of the 378 abandoned prison buildings in Turkey, it is suggested to take into consideration the values theory, which will be important in terms of both the place of the buildings in collective memory and the continuity of their physical structures.
