Schindler`s Factory
Duga, Libor ; Zajícová, Jaroslava (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
The revitalization of the abandoned industrial complex in the middle of Brněnec (Brünlitz) village. Spaces of the area could become a lively centre not only of the community, but also of our national contemporary history in one place, the place with a powerful story of more than 1100 saved human lives from the Holocaust in the Schindler`s factory – the sub-camp of the concentration camp Gross-Rosen.
Conversion of the former textile factory in Brněnec
Handl, Dominik ; Mosler, Štěpán (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on conversion of run-down industrial compound in the village of Brněnec. Among the buildings in the compound, the most significant is Schindler's factory, which is famous for sheltering and saving hundreds of Jews during the holocaust. This remarkable and intriguing history makes it possible for the compound to be used in countless ways, that would bring this place back to life. It is nevertheless important to place the new structures into the original structure with care, as to preserve the genius loci. That's why the new buildings appear gradually more and more the further away we get from the Schindler's factory. They remain hidden behind the peripheral wall of the newly designed building, which is part of the industrial compound and preserves the distinct shape of the saw roof of the original building. The main goal of this thesis is the design of new holocaust museum, which follows up on the history while taking in consideration its surroundings.

Modernity and the Holocaust
Cingeľ, Adam ; Kopec,, Jakub (referee) ; Rozwalka, Szymon (advisor)
The diploma thesis entitled Modernity and the Holocaust deals with the design of the Holocaust Documentation Center in Moravia. The project was preceded by an analytical part in the form of a pre-diploma project, which examined the city of Brno in connection with the issue of modernist thinking in society. The result of this theoretical work was, in addition to defining the scheme of the term "Otherness", also a map of the so-called "second" often rejected Brno. The diploma project focuses on the interconnectedness of the Holocaust and modern society. I try to find answers to the questions of this issue mainly through architecture and I apply my ideas to the design of the documentation center. Thanks to the findings from previous analyzes, the work gets to the topic of regulated and unregulated spaces, which the concept of the whole building is based on. The building is thus divided into two functional units. The lower part functions as an unregulated elemental structure, which becomes the life of the building. It interconnects individual functions and offers many possibilities of movement and division of space. This part is made of steel and, unlike the other part, looks much looser. The second part is the mass of the exhibition, which is lifted to the highest part of the object. This part is a controlled and regulated area. Thanks to its massive mass and concrete facade, it works looks hard and thus creates contrast not only in the level of operation, but also in the visual level. These parts work in a mutual relationship and thus create one unit, which is a combination of exhibition space and additional program such as a cafe, children's center, library or restaurant.
Modernity and holocaust
Vašička, Pavel ; Šindlar, Jiljí (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The thesis deals with the design of the Holocaust Documentation Centre in Moravia. Currently, there are several museums dealing with the Holocaust in our country, but none of them provides comprehensive documentation of the Holocaust. The proposal therefore seeks to create a museum that will be able to report on the Holocaust in a broader context and at the same time will be an attractive environment, especially for visitors living in the multimedia world of the 21st century.

It also gets to the definition of the theme of the Holocaust in the Framework Curriculum for Primary Education and discusses the theme of the Holocaust in literature for children and youth. The final chapter of the theoretical part first defines reading literacy and its development.

The practical part is divided into several parts. The first part is devoted to the methodology of action research. In the next part, a pre-test is designed to determine the level of awareness of the topic of the...

Kutinová, Zuzana ; Kohout, Ivan (advisor) ; Biernot, David (referee)
This thesis is focused on the research of common features between the religious society of Jehovah's Witnesses and Judaism in the Czech Republic. First, it deals with the historical origin of the religious society itself and its roots in our country. Subsequently, the thesis deals with the structure and functioning of this organization and with the events of World War II, which brought much suffering to its members and to Jewish people. It then traces the similarities between traditions and customs and the associated way of life. Finally, it examines the self-perception of the relationship of members of the Jehovah's Witnesses religious society to Judaism. For this purpose, qualitative interviews with current and former members and quantitative questionnaires administered to members in each congregation are used. The field research was conducted in the congregations of the Jehovah's Witnesses religious society, specifically in the congregation in Benešov and in the territory of the capital city of Prague.
