Czech cemeteries and funeral architecture - the problem of integration with urban landscape - research and design studies
Original language description
One hundred years after the first cremation, the Czech Republic is struggling with stagnation in the development of cemeteries, crematoria and funeral architecture. The stagnation is caused by the low interest of society and the government. To clarify, we conducted interviews and field researchstrengths and weaknesses of 20 funeral facilities (cemeteries, crematoria and funeral and funeral halls) and discuss new directions for development. Based on interviews and analysis of locations, we evaluated the needs and requirements of the current society and operators of funeral facilities. We also present one student paper with a proposal to deal with the identified weaknesses. It shows that it is very advantageous to design new facilities mixing the knowledge of national traditions, new trends and customs of the society. Through an innovative approach, even cemeteries located outside cities can become functional parts of the landscape, for example by connecting several neighboring villages and creating new landmarks.
