Evaluation criteria of industrial heritage - practical application
Zelik, Radovan ; Hrabec, Josef (referee) ; Králová, Eva (referee) ; Staňková, Eva (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The protection of monuments in Slovakia is mostly concentrated on „classical“ examples of cultural heritage (castles, historical city centers). It is not paying much attention to industrial buildings, which are important documents of national development in European context from the era of industrialization. These buildings are often also on the edge of public interest, due to their brownfield character, what places then into the great risk. Because many of these buildings are in private hands, it is often complicated to define the protection policy. It is in the interest of healthy development of society to protect cultural heritage as part of its own identity. The thesis is monitoring approaches to protection of monuments in Slovakia, as well as in global context and offers alternative approaches in terms of protection of industrial heritage.

Urban study of developing area Dolní Vítkovice
Vlach, Jan ; Kopáčik, Gabriel (referee) ; Sátora, Josef (advisor)
The object of this Thesis is an area adjacent to European heritage site of Dolni Vitkovice, in the city of Ostrava, Moravian-Silesian Region. This work focuses on making the area more accessible by all means of transportation, overcoming natural and man-made barriers as well as exploring the possibility of dense development on the site while maintaining its industrial identity. All that in context of otherwise slowly shrinking post-industrial city with aging and declining urban population.

MUSEUM OF TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN BRNO
Svíbová, Tereza ; Zemánek, Václav (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
The goal of this diploma thesis was area between the city parts Malomerice and Obrany. After the construction of mill drive, an artificial island was created there. Industrial site with textile factories was established in 1912, however it does not fulfil its original purpose anymore and it is fairly damaged today. My intention was to clear the island and bring back its original form - park, unique place in nature where people acknowledge proximity of the river and cultural activities as well. I designed textile museum in the former factory building. It is accompanied by pavilion of Contemporary textile and fashion and also engineering exhibition. One of the components is an artificial canal for canoeists.

Historical brewery - potential for regional development
Mosler, Štěpán ; Boháč, Ivo (referee) ; Králová, Eva (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
Nowadays there are hundreds of breweries scattered throughout Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia, waiting for their new future. They are either abandoned or in private property. In the worst case they have been deteriorating with no hope of recovery. There are not many left. It is very difficult to find a new function and especially enlightened investor. Important thing is how we will treat with these structures in the future. Will we use this unique potential, or leave this place for a new function? Which way we can choose? What is the potential of these buildings and what they need? This thesis attempts to briefly describe and demonstrate the value of brewery architecture which due to dramatic changes in society became endangered. And to offer possible solutions for the preservation this unique buildings their charm and atmosphere for the next generations.

Conversion of the former textile factory Larisch and Sons in Krnov
Illéš, Juraj ; Deferová, Michaela (referee) ; Zemánková, Helena (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with the conversion of the area of the former textile factory Larisch and Sons in Krnov. The urban design of the area introduces a reinterpretation of the mill race corridor, and creates attractive public spaces connected with the castle area and the historic city center. New functions are proposed in today’s unused historic buildings. The buildings of the former spinning mill and warehouse are converted into administrative and residential premises. The buildings of the former sample room and the production hall house the museum of the textile industry. The architectural solution seeks to preserve the original historical values of the existing buildings and, through the proposed additions, to bring a modern architectural expression to the area that respects the industrial character of the place.

Možnosti využití brownfields pro rozvoj loftového bydlení - případová lokalita DADA Distrikt (areál bývalých industriálních skladů) v Brně
Šťastný, Jiří
This work deals with the possibilities of using post-industrial brownfields for loft housing. In the section devoted to the literature search, the concept of brownfields was defined and then a typology of these sites was presented. Furthermore, in this part, the issues of regeneration of these sites were introduced with a focus on brownfields of industrial origin. A separate subchapter is devoted to loft housing. The theoretical part was supplemented with examples of implemented regeneration of brownfields, both from the Czech and foreign environments. Empirical research of this work was conducted in the form of semi-structured interviews with actors of the project of regeneration of the former industrial warehouse now known as DADA distrikt and with experts on this issue. Based on the analysis of the interviews, the process of regeneration of the studied site was described, the most significant challenges associated with the process of brownfields regeneration for loft housing were identified and recommendations for the development of loft housing in other urban locations in the Czech Republic were formulated. On the basis of the research, seven most important obstacles to the use of brownfields for loft housing were identified. These are complicated property relations of these buildings, the level of dilapidation, ecological burden, inconsistency between the visions of actors, insufficient definition of industrial heritage values, outdated or rigid zoning plan and insufficient profitability of the building. In relation to the last problem, the inappropriateness of the classical development finance model for projects of conversion of post-industrial brownfields for loft housing was identified. The readiness of spatial planning instruments, clear definition of industrial heritage values and popularisation of alternative forms of financing are essential for intensified use of brownfields for loft housing.

Water towers in the first half of the 20th century in the territory of the Czech Republic: Architecture, urbanism, conversion
Varvařovská, Viktorie ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Bendová, Eva (referee)
The study about water towers explains their development in the territory of the Czech Republic. More specifically it deals with water towers of the first half of the 20th century, which are studied from perspective of architecture, historic preservation, and urbanism. They are considered in broader context and finally proven to have a rightful place in the history of Czech modern architecture. Special attention is paid to the integration of water towers into contemporary towns. It is presented on real examples of conversion, while it bears in mind the issues of historic preservation and industrial heritage. Key Words water towers, industrial heritage, architecture of the 20th century, urbanism, conversion

Methodology for the Classification and Evaluation of Industrial Heritage: Water Management
Ryšková, M. ; Dzuráková, M. ; Pavelková, R. ; Vyskočil, Aleš
The methodology deals with water management facilities (dams, small reservoirs, waterways, facilities for the use of water energy, water supply facilities, sewerage and sewage treatment plants), which it assesses from the point of view of monument care. It provides a basic orientation in the topic, an overview of the typology and tools for evaluating water management facilities/objects. The structure of the methodology and the focus on evaluation criteria, which are not yet sufficiently known and accepted in monument care: the typological value, the value of the technological flow and involvement in wider systems are adapted to this. In monument care practice, it should thus contribute to improvements in the documentation, evaluation and objective selection of the most important examples designed for monument protection, which could help to eliminate (or at least mitigate) the protection imbalance of individual types of water management facilities. The methodology is intended primarily for employees of monument care and state administration. It is a tool for orientation in the topic of water management and for their evaluation from the point of view of monument care. It is also recommended as a teaching aid for high schools and universities with a technical focus in the field of water construction and water management.
