AB This study presents a methodology generated for the preventive conservation of defensiveearthen architecture, applied to the case of the Lojuela Castle (Lecrin Valley, Granada, Spain). In theapplication of the designed protocol, a multidisciplinary analysis of its patrimonial characteristics andmultidimensional evaluation was developed, applying the technique of qualitative consultation to agroup of experts—the Delphi method. This methodology allowed us to relate the hazard factors andthe vulnerability of the asset for each group of risks that a ect it. The support of the method in withgeographic information systems (GIS) has favored the production of predictive cartography and riskanalysis—including the territorial dimensions and spatial interactions of the asset with the physicalenvironment. This has facilitated the obtention of micro-zoning maps of each of the risks examined.The risk mapping in micro-zoning and the knowledge of the structure’s vulnerability representsan important contribution to the future conservation and management of this heritage. They favorstrategies that minimize the incidence of risks and allow the prioritization of the conservation actionswith a minimum economic investment, creating an e cient maintenance program. This will facilitatethe protection, conservation and valorization decisions by the administration and the competentbodies involved in the protection of these sites.
