Conclusion
Protecting and maintaining buildings, especially monuments is one of the most important steps that can be taken in relation to the valuable work of past ancestors. Where cannot be keep well or continue to use it, it definitely disrupts the life cycle of the building and causes irreparable damage to it. In these situations, natural and human factors always effect the building and damage it. Since the damage caused by the building gives it an unpleasant appearance, it is also difficult to operate and maintain it. Today are monuments that life cycle has been destroyed due to negligence. The collection of historical works in Varkaneh, is one of the most valuable remains of the Qajar period, because of neglect exposed to distraction. This collection can be moong the effects of the master rural area. Which has been driven by the central government, feudalists, and the productivity of the agricultural and natural an ability to meet the needs of the court. The Varkaneh master collection in fact has been one of the buildings local governor’s seat. These boilding have been governed by the family of Qaragozlou and used for nomadic residence in the spring and summer. The Varkaneh master house has been made white rocky material and cruciate map of unique works. That with method the extrovert architecture and interior spaces are enclosed between walnut and poplar tree. The stone building master’s house shows the innovative use of local and native capabilities so as to resist the cold weather of the mountain. Horse stables have been made white and this kind of approach, property and clever thinking of choosing a place, built in a stalemate valley due to the lack of written evidence, it is not possible to accurately determine the date of construction of both buildings. The result of this research is show that the architectural features of these two buildings, a part from the Varkaneh village texture with the effect mastery architecture and European architecture on the Qajar period they were made with indigenous materials. These both buildings related to the Qajar period these buildings are comparable with Aqhovlar building in Talesh.
