The End of the Coal Era - regeneration of the Karviná region after shutting down the coal mining industry and the future of the locality Karviná-Doly
Šutvajová, Zuzana ; Polák, Jiří (referee) ; Kaftan, Martin (advisor)
The era of mining non-renewable resources in the Karviná region is slowly coming to an end. The coal, which gave the region its specific character and life, is slowly becoming a history. The issue of land recovery after the end of mining has many aspects. In addition to the regeneration of brownfields of mining companies, it also entails ecological revitalization of the area, economic and sociological aspects. Mining has been part of the culture and history of these regions for many years, so we need to be sensitive to this regional industrial identity and find a way to sustainability and ecology in the context of landscape transformation. In the project, students will focus on the area of the St. Peter's Church of Alkantara “leaning church”. The leaning church is one of the last historical footprints left by the original town of Karvinná, which disappeared due to the undermining and subsequent landslides of the land. Today the church together with the Barbora and Gabriela mines defines an area that has lived for many years- mainly due to coal mining, which eventually destroyed it. This unique place, where nature gradually overlaps the traces of mining activity from the past, hides a number of new ecosystems and untapped potential. It the thesis, the research of possible strategies for the restoration of such an area will be made, which results will be applied to specific urban and architectural solutions. The solutions should bring a new drive for an upcoming development and innovation, while preserving the region's industrial history and bringing it to a general public.

Postindustrial landscape – geographical look at the revival of traditional phenomenon of Czech lands
Kolejka, Jaromír ; Kirchner, Karel
The paper deals with postindustrial landscapes in the general level and in concrete territory. The inventory, classification and typology of such landscape on the territory of the Czech Republic are among other research tasks. The detail research is focused on the selected representative areas of the postindustrial landscape. The postindustrial landscape of Rosicko-Oslavansko (the former iron and coal industry area 20 km west of Brno) was subdued to the goal specific land use mapping and the contributions of the pre-industrial and the industrial periods to the present land use were inventoried.
