Reclamation of devastated landscape in the Karviná region (Czech Republic)

Original language description

The article deals with the recent positive changes in the industrial landscape of the Karvina Region. Since the industrial revolution, the position of the primary mining area has brought a dynamic economic development and a great concentration of population into the fast-growing conurbation cities, particularly between 1950s and 1980s. However, the dominant coal mining and processing has had a negative impact on the environment, the character and utilization of the landscape. At present, a great attention is being paid to the reclamation of the affected landscape. As a result, the Region is starting to change its unflattering image of an industrial and problematic area devastated by coal extraction for the better after many years. The various forms ofland reclamation, modification of water bodies, construction of new sports and recreational facilities and so on are bringing a gradual improvement of the environment in the Region, creating a new cultivated landscape
