Urbanistická hodnota zástavby a její ochrana | Marek HanákUrban planning value and preservation of built-up areas, by Marek Hanák
The appearance of buildings and built-up areas provides important evidence of the evolution of all human settlements. Every society leaves an image of its time and development by means of buildings in towns and villages. In some cases, a building is so valuable that it has to be protected for future generations by being listed as a historic monument. Nevertheless, not every building of quality can be preserved, so in some cases a protective hand has to be held over the character of built-up areas by municipalities and their building departments.
Pernštejnské Pardubice. Příklad urbanistické a architektonické skladby pozdně středověkého města | Dana NovotnáPardubice in the era of the Pernsteins: An example of the urban and architectural composition of a town that originated in the Late Middle Ages, by Dana Novotná
In the first half of the 16th century the town of Pardubice became the residence of the Pernstein family, who rebuilt Pardubice in two stages into a water fortress and an imposing town in the front field of a castle. On the instructions of a builder commissioned by the Pernsteins, houses were built and decorated so as to make up a cohesive architectural unit and provide a spectacular view at the entrance to the manor house. In the second stage of construction prefabricated terracotta segments were used as building and also decorative elements. Even after 500 years both stages of construction and the overall urban planning concept of the town are still easily visible.
