Šentrupert se sooča z demografskimi spremembami, praznjenjem zgodovinskega jedra ter propadanjem dela stavbnega fonda. Ob tem primanjkuje kakovostnih javnih površin in centralnih družbenih programov, ki bi prispevali k večji povezanosti lokalne skupnosti. Kljub bogati kulturni dediščini in kakovostnemu naravnemu okolju ostajajo razvojni potenciali kraja, zlasti na področju turizma, le delno izkoriščeni. Jedro naselja se je razvilo okoli cerkve sv. Ruperta, ki predstavlja osrednji prostorski in identitetni element kraja. Zaradi selitve oskrbnih in družbenih dejavnosti na obrobje naselja je trg ob cerkvi postopoma izgubil svojo vlogo družbenega središča ter postal predvsem prometna in parkirna površina. Posledično so številni okoliški objekti ostali prazni in neizkoriščeni, kar je prispevalo k postopni degradaciji jedra.Predlagana revitalizacija temelji na ponovni aktivaciji središča z umestitvijo družbenotvornih programov, medgeneracijskega centra in tržnice. Trg se preuredi v kakovosten javni prostor, namenjen predvsem pešcem in kolesarjem, medtem ko se prazni in propadajoči objekti v obodu cerkve prenovijo ter dopolnijo s stanovanjskimi programi. S kombinacijo javnih dejavnosti, bivanja in prenovljenih odprtih površin se vzpostavljajo pogoji za ponovno oživitev jedra ter krepitev njegove družbene, kulturne in prostorske vloge v naselju.

• Title: Bringing history to life: a conceptual proposal for an intergenerational community center with a marketplace as a strategy for revitalizing the village core of Šentrupert

Abstract

Šentrupert is facing demographic change, the decline of its historic core, and the deterioration of part of its building stock. At the same time, the settlement lacks quality public spaces and central community programs that could strengthen social cohesion. Despite its rich cultural heritage and valuable natural setting, its development potential remain underutilized. The settlement developed around the Church of St. Rupert, its main spatial and identity landmark. With the relocation of commercial and social functions to the outskirts, the square surrounding the church gradually lost its role as a social center and became primarily a traffic and parking area. In time, many surrounding buildings became vacant or underused, contributing to the decline of the town center. The proposed revitalization reactivates the historic core through the introduction of community-oriented programs, including an intergenerational cultural center and a marketplace. The square is redesigned as a pedestrian-friendly public space, while vacant buildings are renovated and adapted for housing. By combining public programs, housing, and improved open spaces, the project seeks to restore the vitality of the town center and strengthen its social, cultural, and spatial role within the settlement.
