THE CITY CENTRE OF ALBRECHTICE

The topic of the thesis is the Sudetenland, a border region that has suffered several major historical blows and is now perceived as the poorest region. The region of Jesenik and Bruntál is one of the forgotten parts of the Czech Republic. The town of Město Albrechtice lies at the eastern foot of the Jeseníky Mountains and is surrounded on all sides by landscape. An important transport route leading to Poland passes through the town. In my work, which starts from the urban scale and ends with the detail of the façade itself, I am exploring how to restore Město Albrechtice to its historical significance and draw attention to its potential.
