Abstract The study of indoor microclimate requires a specific set of tools to measure the physical variables and interpret the results. This chapter, in its first part, describes how to study Historic Indoor Microclimate. In particular, the main physical variables, the standard values, and the methods to measure them are described. Moreover the concept of thermal comfort is outlined, with its variables and comfort indexes, with particular attention to heritage buildings. The second part of the chapter gives an account of the interpretation of data on physical variables obtained from monitoring campaigns, as well as of the instruments to interpret the data, such as graphics and simulations.
