1. Foreword This publication is the result of the “Can we learn from the heritage lost in a fire” project in which Finland, Norway and Sweden consulted about their experiences and knowledge of fires and the fire protection in historic buildings. We hope the information and knowledge gathered during the project will help other people working with fire safety or historic buildings to find new ways of approaching the question. Here, we attempt to present our discussions and examples so that they are easy to read but at the same time, we give all necessary information. Our aim is to show that there are an infinite variety of measures and combinations for the fire protection of historic buildings. When planning fire safety, all aspects have to be considered carefully to find the most suitable one for each case. This publication consists of three main themes: case studies, fire protection and actions after a fire. In addition, we present general information and some aspects of preventing a fire in historic wooden towns. Finally, we present an essay concerning the problem of rebuilding after a fire. The Appendices include a checklist on the contents of a rescue plan and summaries (in Finnish, Norwegian and Swedish). We have added a list of publications from our countries concerning the fire protection of historic buildings to the end of this publication. We have also listed some useful Internet addresses concerning these matters. We warmly thank the Nordic Museums Committee who kindly financed our seminars and met some of the costs for this publication. We would also like to thank the Finnish Fire Protection Fund, which subsidised this publication. Locations of case studies and wooden towns discussed in this publication. 4 ›
