Abstract

    This paper addresses palaces in Palestine in general, and in the city of Hebron in particular, specifically in its old city. It documents and introduces plans, with the help of a number of references, engineers and specialists in the field of heritage and archaeological buildings, within the framework of a documentary, descriptive and analytical methodology that documents and analyzes these components. It focuses on the aesthetic, decorative and interior design aspects that characterize the palace, as well as the changes made to it in order to convert it from a residential building to a public-school building, and the study emphasizes the importance of preserving the aesthetic components of old residential buildings and preserving them for future generations. Finally, it raises questions and provides suggestions that contribute to the preservation process.
