The Newly Accessible Cultural Monuments after 1989 in Liberec Region

This Bachelor's Thesis is focused on cultural monuments of Liberec Region, specifically on category of chateaus, castles and ruined castles which are accessible to public. Aim of this thesis is to find out the number of the objects which were newly made accessible from 1989 to 2011, and to find out if there is some kind of trend in this process. Result of the analysis of all objects accessible to public is a group of six diverse cultural monuments, which were firstly made accessible to public after 1989. The process of making accessible is perceived as introducing the opening hours and the admission for the visit, and the establishment of an exposition or a tour through interiors. A trend can be seen in the number of objects (four of six) that were opened to public by the municipalities. State-owned castle and chateau Grabštejn is shown here as an example of best practice of gradual renewal and the involvement of non-governmental non-profit sector
