Ochrona dziedzictwa kulturowego i przyrodniczego w strefie podmiejskiej i na obrzeżach Sztokholmu na przykładzie historycznych założeń parkowo-ogrodowych

In the article entitled Cultural Heritage and Natural Protection in Suburban Areas and Outskirts of Stockholm Based on an Example of Historical Park- Garden Foundations the attention of the reader was drawn to green areas, both natural and founded by man which are under great concern in The Swedish Kingdom. Particular attention was paid to areas with not only natural value but also constituting cultural heritage on a domestic scale, and sometimes even the European one. Such objects include among others historical park-garden sets. The author of the present publication discusses in detail two foundations exemplifying different styles of garden art. These are: gardens of Gripsholm Castle and the palace park in Drottningholm. They are situated in Stockholm's suburban area on Melar lake. Both described sets have great value for Swedish culture. Moreover Drottningholm was included in UNESCO's relics of the past list in 1991, and Gripsholm Castle is one of ten Swedish Royal castles included in national cultural heritage. Restoration works undertaken in both cases are run with exceptional care and under the surveillance of authorised organs and public opinion.
