Nara); the reference is passing from the tangible of architectural building to the intangible of the heritage community (L.K. Morisset) widening the architectural dimensions of heritage (A. Magnaghi). This transformation of the perception of the patrimonial fact is developing all over the world, but it certainly has a stronger impact in those nations that most integrate the intangible component of this heritage into their living space.Particular examples are those of Canada and Australia, large continental states where first nations people have a different approach to the heritage issues (Burra Charter and Canada pavilion Venice Biennale 2023)Even inside the “Old Europe” we can find some modifications about it, following the communities’ transformation and those should participate to the [re]framing of Venice Charter. We implemented a research project (Centre VdL region funded) on heritage proximity, including a special methodology – called aperodrone - , conceived to integrate the territorial studies in discovering the closeness heritage in some French villages (R.Carabelli, M.Gigot GH.Laffont). We realized how the inhabitants configure their proximity heritage creating a kind of common space that take quite the same nature of official and formal heritage.This heritage, articulating official symbolic values with complementary and contradictory usage values of the inhabitants, becomes a common set for a community that projects itself into the present mobilising the palimpsest of the past.
