| description | The castle in Nová Horka used to be the cultural centre of the Moravian-Silesian Region; it used to be called “Little Vienna”. Despite the fact there is little known about the structural development of the residence. The building archaeology survey in 2021/2022 helped to discover facilities that enabled to increase the comfort of noble people dwelling. These were parts of a heating system, system of lighting and waste disposal, and location of the castle in the landscape as well. The aim of this article is to describe and interpret these facilities in the context of development of Central-European castles. Another aim is to propose a presentation of these facilities to visitors which raises the tourist attractiveness of the castle and its neighbourhood. An educational presentation of this cultural heritage might contribute to sustainable development of this region. |
