      The IGARTUBEITI farmhouse


      Restoration process
      The restoration work was entrusted to a multidisciplinary team of experts in the fields of archaeology, history and architectural restoration.
      The first task was to excavate the basement, which led to the discovery of the remains of an old cabin, which had presumably stood on the same site prior to the construction of the farmhouse. 
       
      Subsequently, a series of planimetric and photogrammetric assessments of the structure were carried out and all the wooden pieces numbered for later study.
      To restore the wooden structure, the farmhouse was completely dismantled and cleaned, and all the wooden parts treated. 
      The objective of the restoration work was to conserve the original parts as much as possible. Therefore, partially deteriorated elements were fitted with supports and extra pieces, while those in an advanced state of deterioration were replaced by others of similar characteristics. 
      Finally, various elements that had disappeared over the centuries were replaced, in order to restore the atmosphere of a 17th century farmhouse with an interior structure dating from the fifteen hundreds.
