The historic cultural landscape represents a significant natural and cultural heritage. Thanks to its specific features (landmarks), cultural and historical values and attractiveness, the cultural landscapes have a high potential for the development of recreation and tourism. The Czech Republic is an area with a high concentration of preserved fragments of historic cultural landscapes. However, some of them have not yet been sufficiently explored and identified, as a result of that the protection of landscape values and character, as well as its use for education and recreation are not adequately addressed. In order to identify and subsequently protect them, we developed in cooperation with partners methodologies for identification, interpretation, typology, and presentation of historic cultural landscapes of the Czech Republic. These are currently being tested on the example of the South Moravian Region. The obtained results are usable not only for heritage management and ensuring general landscape protection, but also as a tool of identification of tourist attractors. The paper presents the mentioned above methodologies and points out the possibilities of their application in landscape protection and development of recreation.

Keywords: landscape heritage, historic landscape typology, tourism, landscape planning, Czech Republic
