We propose a historical architectural study of the hypogeum of the church of Sant’Andrea in Akko (Israel), which promoted new reflections on the urban historical fabric and at the same time provided concrete data for a redesign of part of the structure in line with the historical role and the building Hierarchy that made it a cornerstone for navigation and orientation at sea. The discovery of its architectural composition led the design to an extended dimension in addition to the building itself. We intend to propose a violation of contemporary architecture as a daughter of history and not as an assertion of modernity often detached from the context. In this case we try to recover the role and monumentality of the building, the urban context and the sea front.
