		Abstract 
		Historic building refurbishment market is expanding and it creates a demand for suitable materials, retrofitting techniques and research for 
this  type  of  buildings.  The  differences  between  refurbishment  of  new  buildings  and  buildings with  historical  value  are  insufficiently 
recognized today and there is a lack of research on specifics of historic buildings, when due to the valuable building outlook, authentic 
constructions or  traditional materials only  some of  the  retrofit  techniques are allowed.  In  this article  the possible  retrofit measures  are 
studied and compared. The scientific method for the refurbishment of historic buildings is described. The method is applied in case study 
of Panemunė castle, which after renovation will be used as a public building, and Raudonė castle, which is used as a school. 
The article was prepared according to the project material VAT-57/2012 “Innovative methods of regeneration of architectural   heritage: 
castles of Panemune”.
