Adobe masonry, often combined with stone masonry on the lower levels, bridged with wooden floors and roofs were very often used for the construction of buildings in traditional villages or historic city centers in Greece. Usually, such masonries are reinforced with timber laces at various levels. The fact that such buildings have survived, despite being in an earthquake prone area like Greece, suggests that the structural system can withstand seismic actions, when well designed and constructed. The examination of construction details influencing seismic performance is necessary for the preservation and restoration of these structures. A systematic effort was made to document such buildings across Greece, with particular focus on the Peloponnese region. A systematic collection of photographic records and approximate measurements was undertaken to enhance understanding of the typologies, materials, and construction techniques of these adobe buildings. This approach allowed a detailed analysis of their structure and vulnerabilities. The study observed that adobe bonding patterns are similar to those of fired bricks and differ depending on wall thickness. Timber tie beams contribute to structural integrity and seismic performance by connecting walls and supporting box-type behavior. Moisture is identified as a key vulnerability, although builders used various protective approaches. The preservation and reuse of these structures require systematic maintenance and application of specific adequate repair and strengthening interventions.
