Research on tourism history has been mainly confined to considering tourism area life cycles (talc). Although destinations with a tourism tradition spanning over a century have undergone various life ...cycles, their tourismhistory has rarely been considered in the context of global changes, such as World War I, and how and to what extent these global changes have affected the development of tourism in the tourist area and tourism architecture. Since no direct hostilities took place in the area of present-day Croatia during wwi, the present paper investigates the indirect impact of thewar as a global event on the rise of tourismat the time through unbuilt tourism architecture,whichmay be seen as halting investments in tourism.This researchmay be used to consider the creation of a model for global tourism life cycle by stages, including also paradigmatic changes in the design of tourism architecture.
Although cultural values are the subject of an increasing number of officially adopted documents, at international as well as on European level, elaborations of planned villages' values are rare. In ...1990, the term cultural landscape was confirmed in several international texts as a concept related to the protection and heritage (World Heritage Convention, 1992; Recommendation on the Integrated Conservation of Cultural Landscapes Areas as Part of Landscape Policies, 1995). From the beginning of the 21st century, the concept is dispersed into several disciplines and the focus shifts to the side of natural values, visual values of the landscape, built structure, heritage values, elaborating the concept of the cultural landscape more widely and at the same time clarifying its components more in depth. The paper analyses the values of planned rural settlements in the context of the cultural landscape and the values of the rural heritage. The importance of planned rural heritage as a tourist attraction and potential destination is examined through a spatial multi-level research of the regional area on the example of the area of Western Slavonia, Croatia. Since the middle of the 18th century, in the area of Slavonia, there is the largest number of planned and regulated villages that have been integrated into the landscape, contributing to the spatial diversity and consequently the spatial identity. Therefore, the question arises whether their planned spatial structure can be recognized as a heritage and whether this part of heritage can be used in the function of rural tourism development. This paper explores the historical urban - architectural reconstruction of the village Gornji Vrhovci (1945-1948) after its damage during World War II, and reconstruction (1995-1998) after the damage during the Homeland War. Since the architects led both reconstructions of the village, the paper explores whether the recognizable spatial structure of the village can serve as a contribution to the development of a model for the development of rural tourism. The paper concludes that, despite the need for the development of rural tourism in Croatia, the identity of spatial structures of the village are neglected by the development plans both in the sense of heritage and resource sustainable development.
This paper aims at contributing to the discussion whether functional relationships existed between tourism and sport in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea in the late 19th and early 20th century ...as they do today and whether they were interconnected. After the introduction, the paper describes tourism opportunities of the time and draws conclusions based on the research on built sports architecture, sports disciplines, sports associations and sports events that were linked to tourism. In addition to contributing to the knowledge of the history of functional relationships between sport and tourism, the paper raises the question of how much the relationship between tourism and sport has changed in the last hundred years. The research contributes to a better knowledge of sport tourism history, sport tourism heritage and sport as a tourist attraction.
Based on the contemporaneous and recent (domestic and foreign) literature and spatial plans, this paper examines the relationship between touristic and spatial planning in Croatia and Yugoslavia in ...the 1960s. The relationship is determined using the analytical-interpretative method of the then socio-political system, tourism and spatial policy, social planning, administrative bodies, institutions specialised for planning, tourist traffic, produced spatial plans, the intensity of building accommodation capacity, etc. In the first period after the end of the war, tourism developed in an uncontrolled manner because it was not the subject of coordinated socio-economic and spatial plans. Due to a growing interest for the inflow of foreign currencies from foreign tourists, tourism gradually gained significance and was regularly given priority in development plans. The new approach to spatial planning was most visible in the developed methodology of spatial plan production and the hotel architecture and constructed hotel complexes. Since the Croatian coast had the longest Adriatic shoreline in the then Yugoslavia, the longest tradition of tourism, and was the flagship among the republics in tourism development projections and the spatial planning of tourism (because of the developed methodology of plan production), the largest number of touristic spatial plans during the socialist period were made for the Croatian Adriatic coast (on multiple levels), and the greatest investments were made in building hotel capacity there. Despite the initial idea of developing tourism and equal accommodation options for all, the new tourism planning model transformed away from this basic idea and gave priority to exponential economic growth. This new approach to tourism was most visible through the establishment of a new network of organisations and institutions for planning tourism and tourism planning in a broader spatial context rather than only on the level of individual investments. All factors regarding the implementation of social plans could not have been taken into account because all the administrative and reorganisation factors as well as the dramatic events of the socio-political and economic system as a whole that took place in the 1990s could not have been predicted. The proper methodological steps for continued and coordinated planning in the 1960s introduced significant changes into the system of touristic and spatial planning. After the implementation of the plans began, the complexities of planning (numerous unpredictable factors) that influenced their realisation became apparent. The practice of planning was further complicated because plans often acted in an abstract and contradictory manner in a political system that had a limited capacity for realising quality—and in some cases utopian—plans.

U radu su istraženi organiziranje i djelovanje građevne službe u Križevcima te aktivnosti njezinih službenika od 1777. Do 1918. godine Djelovanje građevne službe u Križevcima ovisilo je o ...organizaciji građevne službe u Hrvatskoj. Podijeljeno je na pet razdoblja: od 1777. do 1848.; od 1848. do 1868.; od 1868. do 1876.; od 1876. do 1894. te od 1894. do 1918. godine.
Da bi se stekao uvid u djelovanje križevačke građevne službe i njezinih službenika, najprije su ukratko opisane graditeljske prilike u Križevcima, kao i u njegovoj okolici te u Hrvatskoj, nakon čega je predočen popis službenika po godinama. U križevačkoj građevnoj službi ističu se dvojica stručnjaka koji su kasnije bili zaposleni u građevnoj službi u Hrvatskoj: Juraj pl. Augustin, koji je od 1876. do 1909. godine bio predstojnik Građevnog odsjeka pri Vladi te Franjo Horvat, koji je bio prvi potpredsjednik Udruženja jugoslavenskih inženjera i arhitekata. Budući da prvi podaci o građevnoj službi u Križevcima datiraju od 1777. godine, ona se smatra jednom od najstarijih u Hrvatskoj, a nakon Zagreba 1770. i Varaždina 1773. godine.
Na temelju arhivskog istraživanja, onodobnog tiska i literature, u radu se prvi puta prikazuju uvjeti, razlozi i dinamika putovanja turista iz Poljske na hrvatski Jadran između dva svjetska rata. ...Istraživanje se sagledava kroz djelovanje pojedinaca i međudržavne suradnje između Poljske i tadašnje Jugoslavije te pojedinih društava i putničkih agencija. Zaključuje se da su turisti iz Poljske između dva svjetska rata na različite načine pridonijeli unaprjeđenju turizma na hrvatskom Jadranu.
Zdravlje časnika (kao i cijele vojske) izloženo je dodatnim rizicima zbog izvršavanja različitih za život opasnih zadaća i to za potrebe države. Stoga nije neobično da država vodi brigu o zdravlju ...svojih časnika (kao i vojske) kroz sustav vojnomedicinske skrbi ili specijaliziranih društava koji pružaju medicinske/zdravstvene usluga u vojnim, odnosno časničkim lječilištima Militärkurhaus / Offizierskurhaus. Predmet ovog rada je međuodnos arhitekture i pružanja vojnomedicinskih usluga časničkih/ vojnih lječilišta koje je izgradilo Društvo Bijeli križ Gesellschaft vom Weißen Kreuze na Kvarneru krajem 19. i početkom 20. stoljeća. Istraživanje se temelji na podacima prikupljenim iz austrijskih arhitektonskih, medicinskih i turističkih časopisa te godišnjaka austrijskog Društva Bijeli križ. Rezultati istraživanja pridonose boljem poznavanju unapređenja zdravlja časnika, razvoju arhitekture lječilišnih zgrada Kurhaus te cjelokupnoj povijesti medicine i lječilišnog turizma na prostoru hrvatskog Jadrana.
The health of officers (as well as the entire army) is exposed to additional risks due to the performance of various life-threatening tasks for the needs of the state. Therefore, it is not unusual for the state to take care of the health of its officers (as well as the army) through a system of Vojvodina medical care or specialised society through the construction of military or officer health resorts Militärkurhaus / Offizierskurhaus with the provision of medical/ health services. The subject of this paper is the relationship between architecture and the provision of military-medical services of officer/military health resorts built by the Society of the White Cross Gesellschaft vom Weißen Kreuze in Kvarner at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. The research is based on data collected from Austrian architectural, medical and tourist magazines and yearbooks of Austrian Society of the White Cross. The results of the research contribute to a better understanding of the improvement of the health of officers, the development of the architecture of health buildings Kurhaus and the entire history of medicine and health tourism in the Croatian Adriatic.
Taking Croatia as a case in point, the authors compare the influence of spatial planning on tourism urbanization. To understand how tourism and spatial planning have interacted on a subnational ...level, two tourism centres on the Adriatic coast, Poreč in Istria and Makarska in Dalmatia, were chosen as case studies. The authors argue that while tourism-driven urbanization during the socialist era favoured the development of hotels paired with quality communal infrastructure and public facilities, the subsequent socio-economic transformation has oriented tourism investments towards private profit in ways that have often led to the neglect of public interest and facilities. The two chosen cases represent different paths, however. In the last thirty years, Makarska has fallen prey to what has come to be called
(apartmentization)—an usurpation of valuable coastal space through the uncontrolled construction of private apartments. Poreč, on the other hand, has maintained its well-planned space by carefully rebuilding and upgrading its hotel capacities.
