“Aesthetic-Charitable View”? Traditionalism in Heritage Conservation in the Czech Lands Between 1945 and 1990
Original language description
This study focuses on the phenomenon of using traditional (pre-modernist) architectural vocabulary and technology to reconstruct historic buildings, as well as to finish and newly construct buildings in settlements with heritage values. It explores the idea of “contemporary stamp” in the conservationist debate, while emphasizing attitudes that did not share the need to revolt against classical and vernacular vocabulary and urbanism. The study examines a diverse range of practical approaches from traditionalist urban renovations (the squares in Fulnek and Moravský Krumlov), full reconstructions either built (Bethlehem Chapel in Prague) or proposed (eastern wing of the Old Town Hall in Prague), reconstructions with a significant share of new traditional elements (the Bishop’s Palace in Olomouc, chateau gardens, open air museums), through to grassroots efforts to preserve heritage values (cottages and civic initiatives). Discussed Czech projects are situated in the larger European context.
