Keywords: Brownfield, Kenadsa, coal, cultural heritage.  Kenadsa, a primeira cidade industrial no sul da Argélia durante a era colonial, experimentou a produção intensiva do depósito de carvão. Após a independência da Argélia, em 1962, a atividade de mineração, que deixou de operar por decisão do governo, deixou para trás um enorme emblema industrial. Este é hoje classificado como patrimônio cultural e histórico na cidade de Bechar. No entanto, terrenos e edifícios deixados vagos pela indústria estão localizados no meio da cidade de Kenadsa, onde uma densidade populacional relativamente alta é centrada. Essa configuração sugere que tanto a cidade como seus habitantes são confrontados com um sério risco de poluição do solo e do ar. O brownfield do Kenadsa, situado em sua entrada, incorpora a identidade e a história da cidade. Na esperança de reduzir os espaços industriais abandonados, este artigo propõe formas de planejamento do uso da terra que pavimentam o caminho para a evolução da cidade em questão. Portanto, adota-se uma abordagem histórica que coloca o fenômeno em sua estrutura de espaço e tempo. Essa abordagem é seguida por um estudo de impacto que é acompanhado por um levantamento de algumas notabilidades. Finalmente, este artigo sugere maneiras de preservar cautelosamente os traços de um passado industrial que, ao mesmo tempo, impõe restrições ao planejamento urbano e prejudica a paisagem urbana e o meio ambiente. Palavras-chave: Brownfield, Kenadsa, carvão, patrimônio cultural.
