A unique programme transforming the area between Havířov, Karviná and Orlová – the post-mining landscape. A unique region where the unstoppable force of nature is gradually healing the scars left by coal mining in previous decades. A landscape that was pushed all the way to the edge – but is now returning to its natural equilibrium. An area that has paid a heavy price for its industry, but is now ready to welcome people who will help re-awaken its potential. A land of a thousand opportunities. An area that for centuries has been exploited to produce coal, but which now offers huge potential as a place to live, work and visit – a place that is proudly showing its new face to the world.
The post-mining landscape, located in the triangle between the cities of Havířov, Karviná and Orlová, will become an appealing destination for relaxation, recreation, tourism and entertainment. It is a region that will attract investors and capital. It will be the location for a wide range of projects that will drive forward a comprehensive process of development – including smart solutions and forward-looking energy solutions.
…all in line with the principle of sustainability.
We are managing an area of
62 km2
to help revitalize it and harness its immense potential to the fullest extent.
The total allocation of funding for all planned transformation projects in the post-mining landscape is
