Özet: Although industrial buildings are important indicators of a country's socio-economic history, they often lose their functions due to rapid technological developments. The main subject of this article discussed is Trabzon Tekel Tobacco Factory which is built in two stages between the years 1951 to 1965 that is an industrial heritage and an important element of collective memory. According to the documents its function has been terminated in the 1990s but wanted to be revived in 2006 with a competition project in order to sustain the collective memory. However, during the competition and implementation phase, the building was completely demolished and rebuilt. In a world which we tend to create by destroying, it is expressed that we cannot ensure the sustainability of collective memory by demolishing the original and later building the exact copy of it at the same place or in another place.
