The project comprehensively solves the multifaceted problem of relevant access to, protection and presentation of traditional folk architecture through the use of preserved planning, drawing and photographic documentation of folk buildings at the level of the whole Czech Republic. Folk architecture can be considered as one of the cornerstones of regional and national identity, including numerous manifestations of ethnic, social or other specifics, which, however, has been disappearing at a dramatic pace for many decades and its recognition and integration into the current cultural values and cultural memory and identity of the Czech population is therefore not possible to implement only on the basis of the study and documentation of surviving buildings.
