God the Father with Angels in Tismice - a newly discovered commission of Josef Ignaz Mildorfer

Petr Arijčuk

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):235-244 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.02  

The Basilica of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Tismice is a valuable testament to Romanesque architecture in Bohemia. The building has been primarily presented in literature as such. In contrast, the Baroque ceiling and wall paintings in the church's interior, dating back to the mid-1850s, have only been only marginally highlighted. The authorship of the paintings has traditionally been credited to a virtually unknown local chaplain, Jan Svoboda. The Baroque painting covers the entire surface of the arch over the presbytery as well as the shallow niches in the front walls of the two naves; other paintings are located in the individual arches...

In the new residential area. The buildings of architect Karel Láník in Brno-Královo Pole in the 1920s

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):245-260 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.03  

Architect Karel Láník, a forgotten figure in Brno interwar architecture, was the focus of a 2016 biographical study from the same author. It appears that the work of lesser-known architects involved in the dynamic construction in Brno in the 1920s has a wider scope than previously anticipated. Particularly in the case of Karel Láník, new facts have been discovered, especially in association with his cooperation with the Public Benefit Building and Housing Cooperative for Královo Pole and its Surroundings (Obecně prospěšným stavebním a bytovým družstvem pro Královo Pole a okolí), for which he designed numerous family and apartment buildings. The present...

"Building a Czechoslovak-Yugoslav friendship." The Crystalex glass complex in Nový Bor

Petr Freiwillig

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):261-270 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.04  

In the Lusatian Mountains, an area where the tradition of Czech glassmaking dates back to the Middle Ages, a modern glass factory was built between 1965-68 which aimed to concentrate all phases of hand-made utility glass production under one roof. The factory was built on the outskirts of Nový Bor, a town that boasts a very long tradition of glass production and trade dating back to the 18th century. At the time, Nový Bor and the nearby town of Kamenický Šenov were trading around the globe, giving rise to the Borsko-Šenov glassworks region. After most of the wood-burning smelters disappeared, the local glassmakers concentrated on refining; only in...

The armor of Alfonso II d'Este at the Konopiště State Castle in the context of armor scale production for the Ducal Court of Ferrara in the 16th century

Stanislav Hrbatý

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):271-278 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.05  

The article is devoted to one of the most important armories in Europe, known as the Este armory at Konopiště Castle, and primarily deals with the identification of hitherto anonymous armor that belonged to Alfonso II. d'Este, Duke of Ferrara.The introductory part deals with the history of how the arsenal formed and the identification of possible personal items of the individual Dukes of Ferrara in relation to the preserved militaria in the Konopiště collection as they compare to the militaria and iconographic basis in private and public collections around the world. This passage also deals with an analysis of the surviving depictions of the Dukes...

Archeology in Prague in the context of the birth of the Czechoslovak Republic

Ivana Boháčová

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):279-291 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.06  

The level of care for heritage properties in general is always dependent on current social necessity and the urgency at which they are accepted as part of a culture's own past. The same applies to the study of sources and its choice of topics. From the perspective of conception and organization of the care of archaeological sources in an urban organism, the activity developed by the Heritage Corps (Památkový sbor) of the City of Prague in cooperation with branch institutions after the establishment of Czechoslovakia in the interwar period represents an important chapter. Up to that point, Prague's archeology for this period had been completely marginalized,...

Historical values on the urban scale: Authenticity of historical cities

Jan Jehlík

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):292-303 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.07  

For the urban context of heritage protection, the following premise may be established: urbanism is primarily a theory of the formation and organization of a relatively coherent and distinct settlement, therefore the fundamental value attributes contain information on phenomena and attributes that support the structural and behavioral integrity of cities; the city as a whole is made up of a natural and cultural stratum, therefore the fundamental value attributes contain information on the foundation, development, and image of the settlement; the city as a whole is instrumentally structured from parts and elements, therefore the fundamental value attributes...

New knowledge about the sound of the musical organ of the Brno and Loket organ school and the restoration thereof

Petr Koukal

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):304-308 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.08  

The issue of heritage musical organs, due to the growing number of their restorations, has become one of the more frequent topics of contemporary monument preservation. When restoring an organ, we must use as a basis the general heritage theory (see Basic Concepts in the Care of Cultural Heritage [Základní pojmy v péči o kulturní dědictví], Pardubice 2013), whose principles also apply in this area. This applies in particular to restoration, which "must always respect the authenticity of the heritage property and must not exceed the boundaries of hypothesis." The restoration itself (including the intervention conservation method) aims to "detect, protect,...

NHI tour guides: who are they and what do they need?

Radka Ranochová

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):309-315 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.09  

Publicly accessible sights in the Czech Republic usually offer guided tours. The guides that lead them are both permanent employees and, in most cases, seasonal temporary workers. They present the cultural and historical heritage of the country to millions of visitors every year, and therefore due care should be taken in this profession. This is one of the reasons why the project "Presentation and Interpretation of the Historical Environment as an Integral Part of Cultural Education in the Age of New Media and Fluid Modernity" is now active; one included aspect is the revitalization of guide care. It also focuses on heritage properties managed by the...

House No. 5 in Trávníček; the survey of a homestead in the Českodubsko area

Tereza Konvalinková, Martin Ouhrabka

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):316-328 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.10  

The rural homestead No. 5 in the village of Trávníček is another example of a specific form of a timbered house in the area of Českodubsko and Pojizeří which, by its constructional design, refers to a very conservative building tradition associated with the development of heating equipment and storeyed houses. Previous surveys have shown, among other things, that houses in this form, i.e. with a high room with a half-storey structure and a connected storeyed agricultural part, comprise one of the oldest preserved layers of folk architecture dating back to the 17th century. The results of newer documentation of house No. 5 in Trávníček brought new findings,...

Half-timbered house in the northern Plzeňsko area on the example of building No. 1 from Popovice near Chrančovice

Karel Foud, Stanislav Plešmíd

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):329-340 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.11  

The fund of historic houses in the northern Plzeň region, represented by a number of buildings featuring folk architecture, is a remarkable example of several architectural styles and constructions. In addition to timbered houses, one can also observe masonry buildings (stone, unburned and ceramic brick), and, to a limited extent, half-timbered buildings as well. Half-timbered buildings are preserved in the district of Plzeň-sever in Rabštejn nad Střelou and especially in the small town of Úterý. Several other buildings have also survived around Úněšov. One of these buildings is homestead No. 1 in Popovice near Chrančovice (Plzeň region, Plzeň-sever...

Stratigraphic survey of facade colors

Petr Kuneš

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):341-346 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.12  

The stratigraphic survey of surface layers, i.e. an examination of a section perpendicular to the layer of paints using a microscope, is an important source of knowledge about the older rendering of historical faćades. As with other methods of study, the possibilities of stratigraphy are limited both technically and interpretatively. A meaningful use of the results of stratigraphic research in practice is therefore conditioned by a knowledge of the possibilities and limits of this method. A stratigraphic survey should be considered as an extension and complementation of findings obtained in situ by a facade survey. Such a survey determines the choice...

The Influence of frost and anaerobic aging on particle size of lime slurry prepared by different procedures

Dagmar Michoinová, Radovan Nečas

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):347-352 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.13  

The article presents selected results of research on the properties of lime slurries prepared using different methods but from the same raw material, in order to determine whether a traditionally prepared slurry can be replaced by a slurry created using an alternative process. The research also included a partial experiment that studied the effect of frost on the properties of lime slurry.The investigated lime slurries were prepared by 1) traditional slaking of lump lime (Traditional slurry) and by 2) dry blending a slaked lime hydrate with water (Hydrated slurry). The raw materials used to prepare the slurries came from the same producer (Vápenka...

Restoration of stucco decoration in the Hvězda Summer Palace as led by Pavel Janák and his predecessors

Pavla Mikešová

Zprávy památkové péče 2019, 79(3):353-364 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2019.3.14  

The Hvězda Summer Palace in Prague on White Mountain has always been the focus of interest from the professional community. While art historians and historians have thus far mainly dealt with its history, Renaissance stucco decoration and the issue of its authorship, the topic of the restoration of the preserved stucco decoration on the ground floor of the Summer Palace has escaped expert attention. This article seeks to clarify this part of the study of the Summer Palace on the basis of previously unpublished archival documents.In the introductory chapter, records from period press present the turbulent history of the Summer Palace, which served...
