Web-based and printed Czech Historical Atlas

Original language description

Czech Historical Atlas represents a project under which historical maps of the Czech lands and Central Europe arise in the coming years. There are two main project outputs planned. A web atlas dedicated to history of the Czech lands from prehistoric times to the recent past will be the first. The second important output is comprised of a printed atlas focused on Czech twentieth century history. The aim of the new atlas is to build on previous historical atlases – such as the Academic Atlas of Czech History (2014) or earlier post-war works of Czechoslovak cartography – and to access latest research results of historians in the form accessible to experts, teachers, students and other users interested in history. Within the project, the Institute of History (Czech Academy of Sciences) and the Czech Technical University in Prague are involved. A special database of historical atlases has been created and designed. Its structure reflects not only the thematic focus of searched atlases but also the subsequent short list of atlases which show the studied area (Central European region with emphasis on the former Czechoslovakia or contemporary Czechia, respectively), and supposed solutions for both versions of the atlas. The aim of this background research was to create a knowledge base for the conception of the atlas performed in the next step. Historians from the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic selected historical themes. In total, there are more than 160 maps. Most maps will be published in both project outputs - the printed and the digital atlas.
