The research of the Chapel of All Saints at Telč Castle shows the benefits of an interdisciplinary approach, where the joint search for answers to questions posed by art historians, restorers, and technologists leads to advances in the understanding of a well-known and much-published monument. All three perspectives converge over questions of what the interior of the chapel looked like when it was built, what techniques were used to execute the decoration, and how the approach to restoration in the 1980s affected the appearance of the interior. It is because of this restoration that today we find it difficult to find the boundaries between the Renaissance...

The aim of this article is to present the main results of the documentation of border markers on the historical border between Bohemia and Moravia. Specifically, 26 solitaires/groups represented mainly by old boundary stones are presented here. The detailed mapping of the historic Bohemian-Moravian border was carried out in the years 2020–2023 on the basis of stable and land cadaster maps and with the help of a precise GPS instrument. Only a fraction of the original several thousand border markers recorded on the old maps were traced in the field. Although more than 1200 boundary markers were documented, only 138 boundary stones can be unambiguously...

Architect as Employee: Architect and Urban Planner Maxmilián Šimáček (1867–1944)

In the canon of modern architecture, we have come to include architects who have not only achieved original creative feats, but who have also succeeded in business. Thus, other career paths have fallen out of the narrative, whether as corporate architects, architects working in government, or as employees of other architects. The example of the forgotten architect and urban planner Maxmilián Šimáček, who, after settling in Prague after World War I, made his mark on the history of Prague urbanism in particular, shows that in such a case it was far from being a failure, and the reasons for his omission must be sought deeper in his creative biography,...

Comparison of approaches to the preservation of modern architecture in the context of contemporary ideological influences

Zdislava Šimková

Zprávy památkové péče 2025, 85(1):48-58 | DOI: 10.56112/zpp.2025.1.04

The study compares two approaches to the protection of modern architectural cultural heritage. The first approach refers to the protection of First Republic buildings, especially functionalist structures, which began with the first monument protection law, No. 22/1958 Coll., on cultural monuments. The beginnings of monument protection thus took place within the socio-political system of undemocratic communist Czechoslovakia, which had to come to terms with what functionalist architecture represented for it. The second approach is devoted to the current issue of protecting buildings from the socialist period in connection with coming to terms with the...
