A study of the conditions and directions of spatial management of a mu-nicipality is one of the most important planning documents prepared at a local level. As an instrument for creating the spatial policy it is the initial document to formulate the local law. It constitutes an act of guidance, defining the planning in-tentions of the municipal authorities, and therefore its findings must be unambigu-ous, legible and understandable. The subject of this analysis is such study of Lądek Zdrój, a municipality in the province of Lower Silesia. The document turns out to contain much ambiguity. The authors use concepts that are incomprehensible, undefined and often mislead-ing. Provisions of the study are not clear enough to allow their transfer to local law. There is therefore a possibility that there might be no correlation between the analyzed study, and the future legal acts prepared at a lower level. ...
Existing advantages of health resort Ladek Zdroj is huge capital for devel-opment of new branches of tourism. Current functioning of system, where the pri-ority has medical tourism, must change its meaning. The type of potential and forecasted trends of healthcare shows that recreational tourism should be main factor determining progress. Its scope covers both agricultural tourism and health resort tourism, where consumer is both person only residing in health re-sort and person utilizing its infrastructure (no matter whether for health regenera-tion or physical rehabilitation. The touristic product should be place identity. The customer should be interested by advantages so that he/she is not only encouraged to arrival but also decides to do it. ...
The study deals with the well-established spa-recreational function in the small Austrian town of Baden bei Wien (Baden ner Vienna), part of the Vienna agglomeration. Its location in the Vienna Woods is especially beneficial to the city's inhabitants, who consider this spa town as a major place for rest and relaxation, especially on the weekends. The combination of medical functions with tourist functions brought to life in Baden bei Wien is a positive phenomena, since spas based exclusively on the medical-therapeutic model are not always able to survive within market economy. The spa model, based only on spa treatment, without any recreational-tourist activity, stands against EU requirements and contemporary expectations within market economy. ...
Lądek Zdrój is one of the oldest Lower Silesia health-resorts. Historical, economic conditions, restrictions and natural advantages are fundamental factors shaping the peculiar format of the health-resort. In 1945 so far successively shaped identity of the entity was discontinued. The issue is: to what extent implemented new individual components of the building development are amending so far formed architectural forms and functional arrangements. In the post-war period, mainly in 70ties, residential buildings and objects performing the healing function were raised. Detailed analysis is pointing, that body, form, arrangement of newly raised residential objects isn't correlated with historically formed characteristics. It is being proved that a scope of the disagreement is a form of contradictions or even of conflict and the deformation of the landscape inside. Healing objects are a realization, what's more without no significant associations with the local style, of standardized typical solutions. It is stated that by definition it was already decided to introduce strange landscape forms into the local characteristic representing the exaggerated monumentality. ...
Last before 1945 spatial transforming the municipal part in Lądek Zdrój took place in 1922. . The essence of changes resulted from incorporation the Nieder Thalheim village. In 1945 , identity of the entity , so far successively shaped ,was given up. A question is a problem: to what extent, contemporary spatial forms initiated only at the beginning of 70ties are making rich or distorting the formed figure of area.A land development is an object of deliberations neighboring the main communications artery (Ogrodowa street), linking municipal part from spa, and area of the housing estate of one-family individual houses. Detailed analysis is pointing, that: Ogrodowa street was changed; the area was developed locating multi-occupied residential buildings representing different figures; they applied different, mutually inconsistent spatial concepts. It is pointing, that location of the commercial supermarket "Biedronka" is a distinct symptom of cohesion of the spring and municipal part.A housing estate of the single-family housing are detached buildings laid out in the spatial arrangement radial - belt-shaped. At diversifying forms, a kept certain uniformity of the architectural format stayed. Currently row houses carried out are representing the determined complementary character with the canon of the native style. ...
Duszniki-Zdrój is a city located in the western part of the Kotlina Kłodzka, near the Czech border. The national road no. 8, which runs through the city, provides convenient communication with the region. The most important factors are: proximity of larger towns such as Kłodzko, Wałbrzych or Wroclaw and other health resorts such as Kudowa-Zdrój, Polanica-Zdroj, Lądek-Zdrój and the existence of dynamically developing winter sports centre Zieleniec which is located within the administrative boundaries of the city. All these factors generate a large number of tourists. Duszniki-Zdrój is an attractive town with the status of a health resort. Currently it is a multifunctional tourist centre rather than a single-function spa resort. The article presents a research thesis: "Is the further spatial development of this spa town possible and advisable?". The main purpose of this research was to evaluate the developmental spatial capabilities of this town. A detailed inventory specifying how land is used has been carried out. In order to better understand the local conditions, the general division into urban units was made. Urban, multi-family, recreational and mixed housing complex, single family housing, agricultural and forestry complex were marked out. An analysis covering the most important elements affecting the ...
The paper discusses the issue of the "A", "B", "C" zones of spa protection regulated by "The law on spa treatment, health resorts and its protected areas, and on health resort administrative districts" (2005) aspart of the spa area or spa protection area, defined in a spa statute, established in order to protect healing medical properties and natural medical resources in the respect of values of environment protection and spa facilities. The aim of the research, the results of which arepresented in the paper, was to identify the problems related to the functioning of protection zones in spas in Polish. In addition, an attempt was made to assess the efficiency of zoning as an instrument of landscape protection, defined by the European Landscape Convention as a geographical-psychological reality perceived in a multi-sensory way. In the course of the research, selectedplanning and strategic documents were analysed, including spa statutes. On their basis, the cities in Poland with the largest and smallest area of the A zone of spa protection and health resorts in Poland according to thesize of the area of different types of spa protection zones were compared. The outcomes of the research were juxtaposed with the conclusions drawn in ...
