Zastavljeni cilj diplomske naloge je bil v prvi vrsti opis problematike varovanja industrijske arhitekture, predvsem na primeru Rakuschevega mlina v Celju. Pri tem so bile opisane dejavnosti lastnice objekta, Mestne občine Celje in pobude strokovnjakov pred samim požarom in po njem. Eden od namenov naloge je bil tudi vključitev drugih objektov, s katerimi je prikazana različna usoda le-teh nekateri od teh, ki so dobili novo namembnost, pa bi lahko služili tudi kot zgled Mestni občini Celje. Poleg tega so preko celotnega diplomskega dela predstavljeni različni dejavniki, ki negativno vplivajo na ohranjanje teh, že danes redkih objektov. Ti so na primer pomanjkanje denarnih sredstev, lokacija objekta, ki je lahko primerna za nove, bolj dobičkonosne objekte, prav tako neuspešno iskanje nove namembnosti. Glavni razlog za propadanje objektov pa je nezadostno upoštevanje varstvenih režimov in slaba spomeniškovarstvena zakonodaja. Pri delu so bili uporabljeni arhivski viri, predvsem za raziskovanje zgodovine objekta samega, saj je literature o slednjemu zelo malo. Pri opisu problematike je v največji meri pripomogla dokumentacija, hranjena na Zavodu za varstvo kulturne dediščine Slovenije, Območni enoti Celje in razni članki v dnevnem časopisju, ki so izšli po požaru. Preko apelov in dopisov, ki so jih pošiljali strokovnjaki na Mestni občini Celje, je moč razbrati nestrinjanje z njenim delovanjem in ponujanjem začasnih in tudi daljnosežnih rešitev. Prav tako so v diplomsko delo vključena razna poročila o stanju objekta, ki so se med seboj izjemoma razlikovala, od tega, da je samo rušitev lahko rešitev, kakor do tega, da bi lahko objekt še naprej obstajal. Pri tem je predstavljeno predvsem nezadostno upoštevanje strokovnih mnenj in hitenje z rušitvijo. The main goal of the graduation thesis has been to describe the issue of the protection of industrial architecture, presented on the example of Rakusch mill in Celje. The thesis presents the activities of the mill's owner, City Municipality of Celje, as well as incentives of various experts prior and following the fire that destroyed the facility. One of the purposes of the graduation thesis has been to include other industrial facilities and present the different fates that they have encountered some should serve as a source of inspiration for the City Municipality of Celje. Additionally, the graduation thesis lists various factors, which have a negative influence on those, already rare industrial facilities. Some of these factors are: lack of finances, location of the facility, which may be more suitable for other new and more profitable facilities, as well as unsuccessful search for a new purpose for the existing facilities. The main reason for the decay of such facilities is, however, the insufficient consideration of the protection regimes and poor monument legislation. The number of archive sources, especially those researching the history of the facility itself, is scarce. When describing the issue, I largely resorted to the documentation, stored at Zavod za varstvo kulturne dediščine Slovenije (Institute for the Protection of Cultural Heritage of Slovenia), Območna enota Celje (Regional Unit Celje) and newspaper articles that were published following the fire. When researching the appeals and letters, addressed to the Municipality of Celje by various experts, it is possible to comprehend their disapproval with the municipality's actions as well as learn about their suggestions for alternative short- and long-term solutions. Additionally, the graduation thesis includes various reports about the condition of the facility, which differ in content: some state that only demolition can be perceived as a solution, some state that the facility should continue to exist. The focus is placed on the insufficient consideration of expert opinions and rushing with the demolition.

Narodne domove so na Slovenskem gradili od konca 19. stoletja pa vse do začetka 20. stoletja. Prvi narodni dom, ki so ga uredili v stari stavbi, je nastal na Ptuju, nato pa so mu sledili še Narodni dom v Celju, Mariboru, Ljubljani, Trstu… Glavni razlog za nastajanje narodnih domov je bilo dokazovanje slovenskosti v mestih in obuditev narodne zavesti pri Slovencih. Večina narodnih domov je bila zgrajena v historističnih slogih, zgledovali pa so se po dunajskih in čeških vzorih. Narodni dom je zasnoval češki arhitekt Jan Vladimír Hráský. Kot reakcija na gradnjo narodnih domov in poudarjanje slovenstva, so Nemci v času nacionalnih sporov, ki so bili posebej izraziti prav na celjskem območju, začeli graditi nemške hiše oziroma nemške domove (Celje, delo avstrijskega arhitekta je Petra Paula Branga, Ptuj, Brežice). Nemške hiše so gradili v t. i. staronemškem slogu (altdeutsch). Stavbe s poudarjenimi neogotskimi značilnostmi so delovale kot gradovi z vogalnimi stolpi in so s svojo precej členjeno fasado prikazovale strogost, ki je bila značilna za utrdbe. Narodni domovi in nemške hiše so bile namenjene prirejanju različnih kulturnih in družabnih prireditev ter zborovanjem različnih si društev. Pomembnost stavb poudarja njihova lokacija, saj stojijo na pomembnejših delih mesta ali vhodih v mesto ter so s svojo monumentalnostjo in pomembno lego v mestu ponazarjajo bodisi slovenski bodisi nemški pečat. National Halls in Slovenia began to build in the period from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. The first National Hall was created in Ptuj, which was renovated in the old building, followed by National Halls in Celje, Ljubljana, Maribor, Brežice, Trieste … The main reason for the emergence of National Halls was the affirmation of the Slovenian national character in the cities and the revival of national consciousness among Slovenians. Most National Halls were built in the historical architectural style and were inspired by the Czech models. The National Hall in Celje was designed by the Czech architect Jan Vladimír Hráský. During national conflicts between Slovenian and Germans, which were especially strong in Celje, the Germans began to build German Houses (the German House in Celje, the plan of the Austrian architect Peter Paul Brang, the German Houses in Ptuj and Brežice) as a reaction to the emergence of National Halls as a sign of the strength of the Slovenian character. The German Houses were built in an old German style (altdeutsch). Buildings with neo-gothic characteristics were similar to castles with corner towers and a façade resembling that of a fortress. National Halls and German Houses had the purpose of organizing various cultural and social events and meetings of various societies. The importance of the buildings was emphasized by their location in the important parts of the city or at the entrance to the city, with their position and monumentality functioning as an important symbol of the Slovenian or the German mark.
