Jan Zikmund: Post-War Industrial Architecture

Industrial buildings constructed for Czechoslovak industry after World War II are today among the most endangered layers of cultural heritage. They are overlooked not only by experts from the perspective of the history of architecture and industrial heritage but also by heritage preservation. Is there any point in protecting this architecture? And what remarkable factories have we meanwhile discovered?

The 12th year of the free lecture series "Heritage" is organized by the Institute of Heritage Preservation and the Institute of Theory and History of Architecture FA CTU in cooperation with ČNK ICOMOS.
