AB - A historical garden in a house-museum is as much a part of the exhibition as the interior museum living space. This natural heritage, in its tangible aspects, is identified to a series of elements such as water supplies, and other rural or urban elements. Gardens offer spaces for a person or community to enjoy and therefore, offer potential intangible heritage with which the visitor may emotionally connect. The opening to public visits, however, may increase the fragility of these resources. Therefore, an appropriate balance should be struck between accessibility and preservation. The ephemeral nature of this element within the house-museum complex requires specific conservation strategies that do not apply elsewhere in order to maintain their historical value. The cultural dimension of this heritage should be the priority in the elaboration of conservation strategies.
