description This study is devoted to the rise of caravanning in Czechoslovakia with emphasis on the period from 1948 to 1989. After introducing Czechoslovak caravanning in a broader context, it focuses on the production of caravans and their availability on the market. It then goes on to examine the legislative rules in force governing the production and operation of caravans. The focus is on the period of the 70s and 80s, when the accelerated development of caravanning in Czechoslovakia was restricted by the limited availability of caravans on the market, most of which had to be built individually on a DIY basis. The final part also takes a brief look at the development of motorhomes.
