    www.saechsische-schweiz.de Rico Richter/Tourismusverband Sächsische Schweiz e.V. Basteibrücke – Foto: Elbe Sandstone Mountains Media kit 2018 Media Kit 2018 Elbe Sandstone Mountains/ Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland The Elbe Sandstone Mountains: a fairy tale in stone. The Elbe Sandstone Mountains – comprising Saxon Switzerland and Bohemian Switzerland – rank among the most spectacular natural and cultural landscapes in Europe. The region straddles two national borders in the extreme south-east of Germany and the north of the Czech Republic and it is only a few kilometres distant from the Saxony state capital of Dresden. The landscape is positively fascinating with its richness of different forms – with table mountains, plateaus, rocky reefs and rock pinnacles, ravines, forests and the Elbe Valley. A large part of the region, which totals some 710 square kilometres (275 square miles) with its abundant flora and fauna is protected on either side of the border as a National Park. Adjoining it to the south are the Bohemian Central Highlands clearly displaying their volcanic origin and characterised by striking conical mountains. Together with the Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland National Park region, they make up a contiguous nature reserve covering 1800 square kilometres (695 square miles). 2 Contents FACTS ................................................................................................................................................................. 4 Tourism Region Elbe Sandstone Mountains / Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland .................................................

  • Planning for Environmental Restoration of Uranium Mining and Milling Sites in Central and Eastern Europe
    XA9846516_J3/ IAEA-TECDOC-982 Planning for environmental restoration of uranium mining and milling sites in central and eastern Europe Proceedings of a workshop held under the Technical Co-operation Project RER/9/022 on Environmental Restoration in Central and Eastern Europe, Felix, Romania, 4-8 November 1996 INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY AGENCY November 1997 The IAEA does not normally maintain stocks of reports in this series. However, microfiche copies of these reports can be obtained from INIS Clearinghouse International Atomic Energy Agency Wagramerstrasse 5 P.O. Box 100 A-1400 Vienna, Austria Orders should be accompanied by prepayment of Austrian Schillings 100,- in the form of a cheque or in the form of IAEA microfiche service coupons which may be ordered separately from the INIS Clearinghouse.

As a result of extensive exploitation of natural resources and in particular of the mining and milling of uranium ores, large areas have become radioactively contaminated necessitating restoration and/or appropriate land use management techniques to ensure that the health and safety of affected population are not compromised. Further exploitation of large territories is thus severely limited and the long term impact, e.g.

Erstgutachter: Herr Prof. Dr. Roland Baumhauer Zweitgutachterin: Frau Prof. Dr. Ute Karl Karlsruhe, November 2012 “Hochwasser ist, wenn der Fluß tiefer wird.” Dipl.-Ing. Heinrich Sieber 2008 Acknowledgements This thesis was written between December 2008 and November 2012 at the European Institute for Energy Research (EIFER) in Karlsruhe. Without the support, help and assistance of so many people this would not have been possible. Here is the place to express my deepest gratitude. First of all I have to thank my supervisors, Prof. Dr. Roland Baumhauer, University of Würzburg, Institute for Geography and Prof. Dr. Ute Karl, European Institute for Energy Research. Both – but especially Ute - supported me in long discussions, encouraged me to work independently and practice-oriented and gave me the possibility to finalise this professional step. They gave me useful advice whenever needed. Moreover, this thesis would not have been possible without some special colleagues and friends, Susanne Schmidt, Sebastian Häfele and Bastian Hoffmann, not only for proof- reading and useful comments, but also for the helpful discussions on my work and the professional and non-professional support they gave me. I appreciate their contributions of time and ideas. To Marie-Eve Stoeckel and Camille Payre I have to express my thanks for the interest in my work and years of support and believe.

  • The Appreciation of Nature and Landscape by Tourism Service Providers and Visitors in the Ore Mountains (Germany)
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Page 1 LANDSCAPE ONLINE 41:1-23 (2015), DOI 10.3097/LO.201541 The appreciation of nature and landscape by tourism service providers and visitors in the Ore Mountains (Germany) Olaf Bastian1*, Christian Stein2, Gerd Lupp3, Jan Behrens4, Christina Renner5, Karsten Grunewald2 1 State Capital of Dresden, Environmental Authority, P.O. Box 12 00 20, D-01001 Dresden, Germany 2 Leibniz Institute of Ecological Urban and Regional Development, Weberplatz 1, D-01217 Dresden, Germany 3 Chair for Strategic Landscape Planning and Management, TU Munich, Emil-Ramann-Str. 6, 85354 Freising, Germany 4 Technische Universität Dresden, Chair of Tourism Economics and Management, D-01062 Dresden, Germany 5 Alaunstr. 90, D-01099 Dresden, Germany Abstract The paper presents empirical studies on the appreciation of nature and landscape in the Eastern Ore Mountains (Saxony, Germany) by tourism service providers (TSP) and visitors. Attractive landscape and experience of nature are the most important reasons to visit this region and to spend leisure time there. Particularly mountain meadows, raised bogs and mixed forests are highly appreciated. Deforestation, industrial development and the decline of biodiversity would reduce attractiveness for visitors. We also assessed whether the tourism sector is prepared to contribute to the funding of nature conservation and landscape management. Use of general tax revenues is favoured, but other modes would also be accepted, e.g. a nature tax. Willingness to pay (WTP) is ranging between €0.75 and €1.36 per guest per night by TSP, or between €1.06 and €2.73 per day by visitors. With respect to landscape preference and WTP we found in some cases significant differences among visitors, depending on region of residence, age and education level.

  • The Elbe Sandstone Mountains: a Fairy Tale in Stone
    The Elbe Sandstone Mountains: a fairy tale in stone. The Elbe Sandstone Mountains – comprising Saxon Switzerland and Bohemian Switzerland – offer some of the most spectacular natural and cultural landscapes in Europe. The region straddles two national borders in the extreme south-east of Germany and the north of the Czech Republic and it is only a few kilometres distant from the Saxony state capital of Dresden. The landscape is positively fascinating with its richness of different forms – with table mountains, plateaus, rocky reefs and rock pinnacles, ravines, forests and the Elbe Valley. A large part of the region, which totals some 710 square kilometres (275 square miles) with its abundant flora and fauna is protected on either side of the border as a National Park. Adjoining it to the south are the Bohemian Central Highlands, clearly displaying their volcanic origin and characterised by striking conical mountains. Together with the Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland National Park region, they make up a contiguous nature reserve covering 1800 square kilometres (695 square miles). 2 Contents FACTS .........................................................................................................................................4 Tourism Region Elbe Sandstone Mountains ....................................................................................4 National Park Region Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland ........................................................................5 Origin and discovery ..................................................................................................................6
