We pass row upon row of cherry and apricot trees, planted in rows like soldiers, all the same age and same size, regularly spaced in a right-angled grid. All at once, the face of the landscape changes. From a productive agricultural area whose appearance is clearly defined by man\u2019s will and his ability to cultivate nature to serve his needs, we are suddenly thrown into a wasteland. The distant horizon opens up before us, we pass through a steppe-like landscape with wild bushes and trees and no signs of human care for this strange piece of land. Only the straight asphalt reflects the virtual presence of man. We are less than an hour\u2019s drive from Prague, and suddenly it feels as if we are outside the realm of human scale, in a landscape whose character could be described as cosmic. It is a strange wilderness of a kind not often found in Central Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are on the grounds of a former military base, an air defence complex built in the late 1970s and early 1980s in order to defend the capital, Prague. In 2004, the military facility ceased to serve its purpose and the area was gradually opened to the public. Nevertheless, the core of the former military site is still accessible only at certain times and for previously announced visitors. Today, the expansive main underground structure houses the Cold War and Air Defence Museum. Nearby, though not visible from here, are several smaller service bunkers. One of these bunkers has been converted into a pet crematorium poetically called \u201cEternal Hunting Grounds,\u201d based on a design by the architect Petr H\u00e1jek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/piranesiprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/6_7_Tomas_Vocelka_06Hires-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dashboard.piranesi.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/6_7_Tomas_Vocelka_06Hires-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dashboard.piranesi.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/6_7_Tomas_Vocelka_06Hires-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dashboard.piranesi.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/6_7_Tomas_Vocelka_06Hires.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Photo: Tomas_Vocelka<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-piranesi-block-piranesi-blocks\">\n<p><strong>Project Data<\/strong><br>Studio: Petr H\u00e1jek ARCHITEKTI<br>Authors: Petr H\u00e1jek, Martin Stoss, Cornelia Klien<br>Projekt: 2014-2018<br>Construction period: 2018-2021<br>Dodavatel stavby: 1PS s.r.o.<br>Investor: V\u011b\u010dn\u00e1 lovi\u0161t\u011b s.r.o.<br>Test operation: 2020<br>Entry into operation: 2021<br>Built-up area: 250m2<br>Enclosed area: 1250m3<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new architectural project near Prague provides an experience of the kind usually evoked by a work of art.
