• Resumen

  • The buildings and facilities of the University of Burgos are located in different areas of the city. The most important building is placed around the Hospital del Rey, which takes its name from the old pilgrim hospital founded in 1195 by King Alfonso VIII of Castile next to Las Huelgas monastery. The architecture of this area of the campus is linked to its architectural heritage, historical development, the environmental environment of the parks that surround it, and the cultural environment of the Camino de Santiago that crosses this part of the city. In this study, a graphic analysis of the evolutionary process of creation of the university campus is carried out in its urban, cultural and environmental context to discover its shortcomings, its strengths and propose the keys to a renaturalization project that, in addition to highlighting all that context, acts as a connector of the campus architecture and gives it its own identity. The renaturalization project is not only proposed with an aesthetic criterion, but it is also based on the institutional objective of moving towards a more sustainable architecture.
