The BCC in the Czech Republic chose our work for day 5 of its Advent calendar on Facebook:
The link to projects led to this list:
The Park Keeper's cottage, Červený Dvůr
- restoration of the ruinous building over a period of ten years by volunteers and local craftsmen to become a therapy unit for the hospital. This was completed in the summer of 2023.
The 'Oskar Schindler factory', Brněnec
- formally owned by the Low Beer family, who built the Tugendhat Villa in Brno; involvement in restoring the original factory buildings to become a centre of social and ethnic reconciliation.
The restoration of the hermitage at the Church of the Virgin Mary, Teplice nad Metují
- with the help of volunteer working parties who visit the place each year.
The restoration of wall paintings at the Château at Kácov
- work is being partially carried out by the students of conservation from Pardubice University who are gaining invaluable experience that is almost unique in the Czech Republic.
