Abstract [eng] In recent times, it‘s particularly relevant both in Lithuania and in the other countries of the world, which have an attractive environment for tourism, to build new buildings or destroy old architectural heritage buildings, to create attractive objects for commercial purposes usually. Such transformations are carried out regardless of the management and usage traditions – the authenticity of the cultural heritage is being destroyed. Instead of doing this, heritage buildings could be used for other functions. Sustainable usage of theses buildings would help to reduce natural pollution and preserve historical values of the city. The aim of the master‘s final degree project is to analyze renovation of heritage buildings in accordance with the principles of sustainability. The project is divided into the introduction and three main chapters, conclusions, a list of literature and appendices. Work size – 77 pages, 46 images, 7 data tables, 32 literary sources and 2 appendices. The introduction is dedicated for a presentation to the problem and its topicality. There are also formulated the aim and tasks of the work: the used methods and novelty of solutions are described, as well as usage possibilities. The first chapter covers an analysis of existing scientific publications related to the problems of the thesis. At the end of the chapter the conclusions are formulated. The second chapter introduces research methodology, describes obtained results and used tools. The study of the microclimate of the premises of the modernist architectural heritage buildings are described in the work, using objective – measurement of temperature, relative humidity of the air and CO2 concentration, and subjective – by submitting questionnaires to students and employees at the premises of the building. According to the results obtained in the studied room, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study was carried out, using the FloVENT computer software. Two ventilation methods were created to ensure better indoor air quality. The third chapter presents an analysis of the life cycle analysis of a granite plaster, which seeks to determine the possible damage for the environment and people done by using local or imported materials.
