The article presents the latest results of archaeological studies on the 8th-10th century hillforts in the Sudetes. The authors present previously unknown structures, found through the analysis of aerial scans using the ALS method. Excavation and office studies conducted since 2005 in the Sudetes also allowed for correcting the chronology of some previously known hillfort sites. The article also presents a discussion on the structures referred to as ‘quasi-hillforts’ and those considered to be destroyed. The findings are concluded by a summary of changes in the archaeological research of the early medieval Sudetes over the last 15 years, i.e. since the publication of the last monograph devoted to hillforts in this part of Central Europe.

Background. Natura 2000 is a conservation network developed in all EU member countries. It is designated to support the long-term survival of most valuable and threatened species and habitats. Almost half of the Sudetes area, where tourism is one of the significant functions, is included in that network. The main aim of the paper was to evaluate the role of Natura 2000 sites for the socioeconomic development of the Sudetes municipalities, especially for tourism development. Material and methods. The research materials were the main planning and strategic documents for the local development (117 documents in total). The research was conducted in 44 Sudetes municipalities. The authors took into account the attitudes towards Natura 2000 areas and the comprehensiveness of the approach to the problem. Results and conclusions. The local authorities find Natura 2000 sites an im­por­tant opportunity for local development. However, their role is not usually precisely explained. Neutral attitude dominates in the analysed documents. Generally, Natura 2000 sites are not perceived as a threat for tourism development in the analysed municipalities.

Dobków is a medium-size village in the West Sudetes which for long did not benefit from tourism development in the region. Owing to the activity of local leaders, numerous initiatives have been implemented in Dobków since 2005, aimed at the revitalization of the rural space, promotion of local traditions and tourist values, and creation of attractive tourist products. While developing the latter, major emphasis is put on regional geoheritage, especially the legacy of ancient volcanism, and visitor’s experience of rural environment authenticity. Nowadays the main effort is directed towards adapting an old farmstead for a centre of regional education, which – after completion – will serve as a major visitor centre in the region. The case study of Dobków shows that consequent expansion of educational space is among the key components of creativity in a village.
