The arboretum borová hora – its importance and influence on the landscape of zvolen town environs
Sarvašová, Ivana ; Lukáčik, Ivan
Arboretum and botanical gardens are scientific and educational institutions that are closely connected with the development of science and the needs of practice. They are specific by the focus of the plant collections, the architectural solution, the location within the residential unit, region, etc. Arboretum Borová hora is a research and pedagogical workplace of the Technical University in Zvolen. The collections use primarily for pedagogical, scientific research and educational work in the field of dendrology and other biological disciplines. In contrast to other similar facilities, mainly autochthonous trees species grow here, which once grew in the forests of Slovakia, in their wide intra-species and geographical variability. Arboretum Borová hora has with a high probability changed the potential values of the landscape during its more than 55-year duration, especially in relation to the residence and their contacts with the landscape. The landscape character, natural components and characteristics of the arboretum are currently perceived as added value, which is used not only primary education, science and research of the faculties of the Technical University in Zvolen, but also environmental education of the general public in an experiential form.
