Description This article revisits the theoretical beginnings of Czech town and country planning, and signifies its close relationship with contemporary environmental approaches. The essay focuses on the period between 1918 and 1949, and the basic situation in the development of the Czech theory of spatial planning. The article also points out the changes in the perception of the tasks of planners, and the change that urbanism underwent on the path "from the town to countryside". The main part of the text is constituted by the introduction and evaluation of individual "environmentally thinking" authors and their approach, which hopefully helps to reveal the general approach in this sphere throughout the first half of the 20th century.
