The thesis aims at creating a restoration study of the Rajhrad Abbey monastery gardens. To create the most valuable design, values and conflicts were established in the region as well as opportunities and risks. After a stay in the monastery, author got to know monks everyday life and gained a more complete overview of the demands and needs of the Benedictines on the premises. The aim is to create a harmonious functioning self-sustaining space, filled with features and variability. The space in which monks will be able to spend the time praying and working while visitors will relax and open their souls. The combination of material and spiritual world reaches its peak here. The design respects genius loci eminently, in the areas where it was kept. In places where their identity was changed by inappropriate intervention, the author tries to bring back or restore original values. Analysis confirmed the uniqueness of the place and its importance. The design then works with synchronization and harmonization of content in space and their overall interconnection and harmony. Several very different areas conceal number of quite varying potentials and contents. Thus, the same amount of different approaches to the solution. Historical values and compositional elements are maintained and respected. A major theme is the restoration of the original Santini's entry, which completely changes visitor's perception of the space. The place full of meditation, prayer, relaxation, peace and tranquility will certainly find its place in today's stress-filled time. Location near the city of Brno is perfect for weekend tourists who leave behind the hustle and confusion of big city and working duties. This object is sure to be highly demanded and rated tourist destination and beloved home to religious monks. More than half of authors focus, space and beauty of the abbey is dedicated to them. Their life, enthusiasm for independence of the monastery and herbs ware one of the engines the thesis was driven by.
