Resurrection of the Sudetenland

Sudetenland. Unlike the more mixed Krkonoše and Šumava Mountains, the Ora Mountains were home almost exclusively to the German-speaking population in the last century, so when they were expelled after 1945, people disappeared from the landscape completely. The mountains lost their heart and soul. Those who loved it here left. In addition to five hundred depopulated villages, there were also one and a half thousand abandoned hamlets on the slopes. One of these many hundreds of preserved, relatively typical buildings forms the basis of our intervention.
