N2 - Drystone walls are a tangible and eye-catching structural element in thelandscape. They bear witness to natural and human action and interaction and inte-grate the prefiguration of territory with aspects of space, life and agricultural produc-tion. How should the landscapes that they create be conserved and maintained in thefuture—and by whom? How can a territory accommodate considerations of space,nature, geology and material culture? This chapter aims to analyse and identify howlandscape observatories can detect novel and relevant data and knowledge, and howthe involvement of landscape observatories can be more effective. While there isa growing body of data and mapping, there has been little attention on particularsite-specific perspectives, and how to visualise and communicate with the public.To some degree, the feeling of loss obstructs a nuanced and realistic strategy forfuture magic and attractive drystone landscapes. Based on cases from Småland,Sweden, Britain and Mallorca, and on three heritage cases from Jelling (Denmark),Kalkriese (Germany) and Olot (Spain), I critically analyse and identify a potentialmodel for the future role and involvement of landscape observatories in the elabora-tion and management of drystone landscapes and suggest selecting particular sitesin association with drywalls.
