The French region of Alsace, famous for its half-timbered houses, faces threats from the passage of time and urban development. Annually, 400 of these century-old houses are demolished. Locals try to preserve heritage: a couple renovates their old house with ancestral techniques, while a company near Strasbourg dismantles abandoned structures to reuse the framework in new buildings.
