Monuments and nature gardens,

parks, cultural landscape

Gardens are living witnesses to bygone centuries.They, as built environment, give the frame of our everyday life.Human will shaped, organized, often with artistic purpose, the vegetation into gardens, cultural landscapes, to enhance their beauty, to enforce their aesthetic effect.

This undoubtedly artistic branch has several centuries of literature and several thousands of years of practice.This art works with specific, living material, which, throughout its development, bears similarity (often parallel) to architecture, so to make each other complete.

These works of art are definitely within the domain of monument protection, thus we have to pay attention to their preservation.Those planning gardens do not only have to reckon with the „material", but also with time.Garden building, country planning is a program that is shaped by, becomes complete, then dies together with the development of vegetation.

Tending gardens and parks does not simply mean safeguarding.The vegetation has to be fitted into the concrete environment with expertise and artistic sense, it has to be tended, cultivated, maybe reconstructed, according to the intention of the designer of the historic garden.

People of the 20th century have a special need for these „green islands", which can be parks newly fitted into the townscape, or historic gardens.Preservation, reconstruction and environmental design are important parts of monument protection. It is a task requiring culturalhistoric and archeological research.
