Morphology
unrejuvenated = rejuvenated (transparent) = un + rejuvenate + ed
Formed by the negative prefix 'un-' added to 'rejuvenated' (restored), yielding a straightforward 'not restored' meaning.
Etymology
Unrejuvenated comes from the parts re- 'again' and juven- 'young', the same root as juvenile. So an unrejuvenated building or object was not made 'young again' and still looks old or worn.
