GREEN AREAS AND NATURAL POTENTIAL OF THE POLISH CITY OF CIESZYN IN THE OPINION OF RESIDENTS

Edyta Rosłon-Szeryńska

Cieszyn is located in the Silesian Voivodeship. It is a border town, divided into the Czech part on the west and the Polish part on the east bank of the Olza River. Cieszyn is characterized by specific physiographic features resulting from its location in an upland and hilly area, characterized by a strongly undulating platform at the foot of the Beskids, crossed by numerous ravines and watercourses in narrow valleys, which are tributaries of the Olza River. Although the city's forest cover is only 7%, and green areas cover 3% of the city's area, open areas, communal fields and meadows (45%) have great natural potential here. Natural areas, including protected areas and green areas of Cieszyn, were assessed. Opinions of residents about the nature of Cieszyn were surveyed. You included the results of scientific research and research for the valorization of greenery, and then you used and used it to develop the natural system and indications for the management of green areas of the city.
