The experimental data on the thermal properties of the nanostructured perovskite ferroelectrics are presented and analysed. The ability of the modified 3w method for specific heat measurements is discussed and illustrated by the thermal properties of the thin polycrystalline (BaTiO3 on fused SiO2, 50-1100 nm) and epitaxial (BaTiO3 on MgO, 50-500 nm) films. The similarity of specific heat, phase transition excess entropy evolution in polycrystalline films and nanograined ceramics is revealed. The data on the specific heat of epitaxial films show the extremely diffused anomaly near 400 K, the phase transition has the weak tendency of shifting to higher temperatures with the decreasing of the film thickness. No anomalies were detected for the thinnest (50 nm) film up to 480 K.
