The author has made the first attempt at an
analysis of the built-over area of Katowice city
centre where the largest number has been preserved
o f buildings dating from the end of the 19th
and the beginning of the 20th century. The urban
pattern — also dating from that time — has surv
ived without any major deformations until this
day and continues fully to exercise the city-centre
functions. It refers to French rationalism (logical
lay-out of the transport system) and English garden-
cities. One o f the particularly interesting spatial
solutions is that of closing the streets with an architectonic
structure significant from compositional point
of view.
Preceding with her deliberation the author deals
with the respective examples of stylistic form of
architecture of the turn of the century and puts
forward a number of postulates i.a. that for preservation
of the functions exercised by the historical
district so far with its adaptation to present-day
requirements. What is also postulated for is a circular
road around the central area, reconstruction
of the system of green spaces, preparation o f a complete
documentation for conservation purposes, modernization
of the interiors of the historical tenement-
houses. In the author’s opinion the streets of the
city centre of Katowice should be restored to their
genuine 19th century appearance and the district
concerned imbued with the atmosphere typical of
the period.
