Abstract
The Toron Castle acts as a focal point in Tebnine. It is located on a higher landform compared to its surrounding. The eye is drawn by its contrast with lower-lying topography. At specific points, the castle is seen powerful and it inspires movement towards it. As the Toron Castle becomes part of the cultural landscape of Tebnine, it is important to highlight its history. The project consists of the development of the areas beneath four sites that end up in the heart of the castle. The built elements include a ramped metallic structure, an amphitheater, the municipality square, a community gathering with seating areas and a welcoming meadow.
