Wroclaw has long been seen as a green city, and its individual settlements grew in its realizations parts of the garden city. Beginning of the nineteenth century was a milestone when it began to appoint units involved in the shaping and management of green areas (i.e. Construction Deputation, Beautifying Commission or Promenades Deputation). As a result of their operations arose in the city promenades, wooded avenues and parks. During this period, began the development of green areas system as rings and wedges. This system on the map of Wroclaw, we can see even today, and the fundamental document defining its formation is Study of Conditions and Directions of Spatial Development. Since the beginning of 2000, in order to improve the quality and standards of urban greenery, a specialized managing, investing and co-ordinating unit was created in Wroclaw, for the development of urban green areas - Green Municipal Board. Under the supervision of the Board is currently about 39% of the total area of green areas in the city, including urban green areas representing 13% (45 parks, 147 greens, street green and woodlands), as well as urban agricultural lands. The authors of the paper approached the theme of development of green and natural landscape in Wroclaw in the time frame of ZZM activity. The study focused on issues such as areas management, the scope of work of unit, funding, completed realizations and planned investment and cooperation with scientific environment in Wroclaw.
