Comparison of approaches to the conservation of modern architecture in the context of contemporary ideological influences
Pilařová, Zdislava ; Indrová, Martina (advisor) ; Jordánová, Květa (referee)
The thesis focuses on the comparison of two approaches to the protection of modern architectural cultural heritage. The first approach is the protection of the First Republic, especially functionalist buildings, which began with the first culture heritage law No. 22/1958 Coll. The second approach is devoted to the contemporary challengers of protecting buildings from the socialist era in the context of reflecting the past that the buildings may represent. Both approaches are related to the issue of the subjectivity and ideological conditionality of heritage protection. The research is set in the context of the development of architecture since the 1920s, the development of heritage protection, and the context of reflecting the past. The fate of selected monuments that have become central points to the change of narrative is also discussed. The thesis employs a method of qualitative analysis of information obtained from the contemporary literature and the National Heritage Institute's web platform Památkový katalog, followed by a comparison of approaches to the conservation of buildings in the style of functionalism and buildings from the socialist era. The thesis tries to connect several themes - the development of functionalist architecture and architecture from the socialist era, the development...

The new national typology of the historical cultural landscapes is created by 34 types of the historical cultural landscapes that exist in the Czech Republic. The typology is based on three categories of the cultural landscapes that were defined by the World Heritage Committee (UNESCO), i.e. designed, organically evolved and associative landscapes. The typology of the historical cultural landscapes could be used for identification, classification and evaluation of the historical cultural landscapes on the national level. The typology is applicable for the spatial identification of landscape with important cultural values that serve to the public interests in landscape protection. The typology could be also used for identification of the cultural landscapes in analysis for the spatial planning.

The Adaptation of Industrial Heritage in the Context of Existing Urban Structures
Struhařík, Daniel
Two industrial sites are compared on the basis of a collective case study – a former textile factory complex belonging to Vlněna in Brno which has been demolished, together with the Löwenbrau brewery, which has been converted into a viable site with apartments, offices and a gallery (thanks to the reconversion and completion of new contemporary layers). The fundamental difference was found to be a result of the respective public sector’s differing approaches, especially in the sphere of spatial planning. Due to the long-term strategy, identification of qualities and potential based on discussions with developers and the further involvement of other participants, Zurich city is about to revive its industrial quarters whilst also preserving important traces of the past. The example of Brno is different. The spatial “zoning” method causes a specific development without maintaining any existing spatial qualities. Another reason is the attitude of the National Heritage Institute, which does not take the importance of the Vlněna complex into consideration in its decisions altogether with its reference to the former development of Brno city as a part of the local industrial heritage.

Kalkusová, Barbora ; Netková, Jarmila (advisor) ; Váňa, Václav (referee)
The thesis has the purpose of reviewing the problem of the use of historical buildings for the requirements of the tourism in the Prague Heritage Reservation. The heritage property fund is one of the principal parts of our national cultural heritage.

The theoretical part is dedicated to specify the current issues through the analysis of Prague tourism, heritage law, heritage institutions and cultural tourism. In the practical part the use of historical buildings for the requirements of the tourism, primarily commercial and cultural & educational, is crucial. Based on the confrontation of these two building functions and questionnaire analysis within the amateur and specialist public, the work tries to demonstrate the benefit of these types of use including the sustainability to the heritage property fund of the Prague Heritage Reservation.
