    Latacunga possesses a valuable tangible and intangible cultural heritage, which includes a historic center recognized for its colonial architectural value, churches, plazas, artisanal traditions, and expressions such as the Mama Negra Festival— recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ecuador—all of which constitute a unique cultural identity in the central region of the country. However, the city lacks adequate infrastructure to enable the dissemination, conservation, and enhancement of this legacy, thereby limiting the development of museographic, educational, and community activities, as well as cultural tourism. In this context, the former Women's Prison, a building classified with partial heritage protection that currently operates as the Municipal House of the Arts, represents an opportunity to address the shortage of cultural facilities in the city through its rehabilitation. This intervention seeks to integrate the historical memory of the site with the contemporary needs of the community within a single space, positioning it as a hub for gathering, creativity, and the strengthening of local identity. To achieve this, the study proposes to diagnose the building's physical and heritage condition, to define intervention criteria that respect and enhance the memory of the site, and to develop a flexible functional program responsive to the community's current needs. The research follows a qualitative approach based on a case study, employing direct observation through photographic documentation, planimetric surveying, and pathology assessment sheets, complemented by a review of national regulations and an analysis of Latacunga's Land Use and Development Plan. Additionally, rehabilitation strategies, relevance, and processes were examined. The theoretical framework is grounded in the restoration theories of Eugène Viollet-le-Duc, which advocate for a respectful intervention coherent with its time, incorporating new elements that dialogue with the original structure. The functional and morphological criteria prioritize the preservation of the existing materiality and the incorporation of compatible contemporary elements.
