The territory on the eastern side of the Morava river border has preserved traces of continuous settlement evolution and changes in the landscape environment over the last millennium. The peak of this process was the period of ownership by Francis Stephen I. of Lorraine and his successors; especially Austrian Emperor Francis I. Moreover, its revitalisation is currently in progress following utilitarian changes in the 20th century. Finally, the eventual combination of architecture and landscape in one artistic ensemble partly preserved in situ proves the significant value of a cultural landscape transformed by generations of multiple cultures over several thousand years.
