Introduction to the development of the care of historical monuments - from the first expressions of respect towards historical works and works of art of the past to the present situation. After the introductory lecture, presenting selective examples of sensitive approach or relation to the artefacts of the past before the origination of the first legislative tools serving to protect historical monuments, attention is mainly paid to the development of the principles of care of historical monuments of the 19th and 20th centuries, including the establishment and activities of the Viennese Austrian-Hungarian committee for preservation of and searching for historical buildings. The education presents concepts of approaches to the historical monuments found both in theoretical works and practical realizations of the leading personalities in the field (E. E. Viollet le Duc, J. Ruskin, A. Riegl, G. G. Dehio, M. Dvořák, Z. Wirth, V. Wagner) with especial focus on the Central-European milieu. Attention is also paid to the unfortunate regional specifics of the North-Bohemian region after the Second World War and their consequences, and to the available documents on this subject. At closing, characteristics is provided as concerns the contemporary legislature in the care of historical monuments in the Czech Republic and the operation of professional organizations and executive bodies of the state care of historical monuments. The lectures moreover provide comparison with the systems of care of historical monuments in selected European countries, including the present economic information about the subsidy stimulation of the monuments? owners and some topical problems in the field.
The graduates receive basic orientation in the development and essential theoretical points of departure and philosophical tendencies (including selected personalities) in the care of historical monuments, including relevant terminology employed by the given field. They also become orientated in the basic issues of the legislature concerning the care of historical monuments with emphasis laid on its practical use (e.g., on the ability to process a proposal to proclaim an object a cultural monument, the structure and role of executive bodies and organizations of state care of historical monuments, legal bases of state care of historical monuments, legal bases of protecting historical monuments, contemporary possibilities of receiving grants for the benefit of rescuing and restoring historical monuments). The graduates are familiar with the specific issue of the devastation of the North-Bohemian monuments during the latter half of the 20th century (the issue of the so-called mining area) as well as with the comparative characteristics of the systems of care of historical documents in some other European countries.
