Abstract	The paper presents the application of the seismic assessment procedure developed in the PERPETUATE project on a single monument, the Neoclassical School in the Medieval City of Rhodes. The PERPETUATE methodology for the estimation of seismic risk of cultural heritage assets is based on the principles of performance-based assessment (PBA), using nonlinear static procedures. The outcome of the PBA methodology is the maximum seismic intensity measure compatible to different performance levels. The focus of the paper is on the application of the methodology, considering the effects of both soil–foundation–structure interaction (SFSI) and masonry foundation flexibility on the building response, before and after rehabilitation design measures. It is found that SFSI and foundation flexibility produce larger displacements and reduce the maximum ground acceleration that the building can sustain by over 50 %. However, despite the detrimental effects of SFSI on the acceleration capacity, SFSI and foundation flexibility may have a favorable effect on the structure safety, as they modify the collapse mechanism. The results of seismic analyses showed that the building, in its current state, does not sustain the demands for the Life Safety and Collapse Prevention performance levels. Stiffening the roof of the structure and providing sufficient anchorage to the structure, along with systematic grouting of the masonry walls, are the principal rehabilitation decisions considered herein. Mitigation measures were evaluated, considering SFSI and the analyses revealed the adequacy of the proposed retrofitting measure, which combines vertical (wall) and horizontal (roof) stiffening.
