Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 建築研究所 === 106 === The development of industrialization in the 18th century brought a strong impact and changes to human life, industrial development, and cultural history. These industrial construetions, industrial spaces, and industrial environments that once served as the focus of local development have changed in industrial structure, modernization, and urbanization. Under the development of chemical industry, the industrial heritage space is left unused and abandoned. In the process of industrial heritage transformation, obstacles and burdens such as poor perception, environmental destruction, and inconsistent economic efficiency are often encountered, thereby accelerating the destruction and removal of industrial heritage. However, the protection of cultural assets and the preservation of industrial heritage can be seen in the content of UNESCO''s international cultural heritage protection. These industrial cultures often involve industrial landscapes, sites, machinery and equipment, and related literature. As an intangible cultural heritage, it is necessary to include its relevant cultural assets in consideration when it comes to preservation and future re-use, so as to build people''s understanding and attention to local culture.
The development of sugar industry is one of the important industries in Taiwan. In the industrial history of Taiwan, the sugar industry had a place in the economy development, and it also affected political decisions and social operations. In particular, since the Japanese sugar industry entered Japan with Japanese capital during the Japanese occupation period, it not only changed the sugar industry''s production model and mode of transport, but also had a major impact on the lives of farmers, the local environment, and the economy. Even though today''s sugar industry development is no longer in its former position, the past sugar industry has had a tremendous contribution and influence to Taiwan. Therefore, the sugar industry is still a subject worthy of review and discussion.
Since the opening of the land, the land development of the Suantou Sugar Factory has always used agriculture as the lifeline of the economy, and the local residents have relied on the land for their livelihood. The expansion of industrialization has also allowed local agricultural production to continue in different forms of production, using the resources of local raw materials (sugar cane) to establish sugar production. The sugar industry is a large-scale system organization that includes rural landscapes, industrial landscapes, production structures, lifestyles, and other elements. It has created important cultural meanings such as local economy, industrial culture, local emotion, and industrial landscape.
Therefore, this study explores the interaction and implications of the value of the cultural assets of the Suantou Sugar Factory in history, space, and the population. Based on the discussion of the definition of cultural landscapes and industrial heritage and the preservation value, the scope of preservation of the Suantou Sugar Factory and the value of its cultural assets were examined, and the integrity of the cultural assets of the Suantou Sugar Factory was attempted to be constructed. It is expected that the implementation of the plan will be used as a reference for the use of the Suantou Sugar Factory in the future to achieve the continuation of local memory and the inheritance of industrial culture.
