The History and Present Role of the Tatra National Park

Authors: W. Gasienica Byrcyn;

The History and Present Role of the Tatra National Park

Abstract

The Tatra National Park (Tatrzanski Park Narodowy) was created in 1954, but the concept of nature protection in the Tatra Mountains dates back to scientists in Krakow in the mid-nineteenth century. The present operation of the Park is focused on forest management and documentation of the unique qualities of the area. Scientific research, tourism, and recreational activities also take place within the Park, but are limited to specific areas and controlled by Park authorities. Sheep grazing, which dates from medieval times, remains important and there is a rich folklore of shepherds' tales. There is now a proposal to include the entire Tatra Mountains, both Polish and Czechoslovak areas, into the global network of biosphere reserves. RESUME Historique et r6le actuel du Parc national des Tatras. Le Parc national des Tatras (Tatrzanski Park Narodowy) a eiti fonde en 1954, mais l'id&e de proteiger le milieu naturel des Tatras doit tre attribu6e aux chercheurs scientifiques de Krakow du milieu du dix-neuvieime siecle. L'utilisation actuelle du parc se concentre sur la gestion de la foret et sur la documentation scientifique des caracteristiques uniques de la reigion. La recherche scientifique, le tourisme et les activit6s de loisir sont permises, mais elles sont localisees et sont soumises au contr6le de l'administration du parc. Le paturage des moutons, qui remonte au moyen-age, est toujours important et les recits des bergers constituent un folklore tre's riche. Il a etie propose que l'ensemble des Tatras, polonaises aussi bien que slovaques, soient incluses dans le reiseau global de reserves de la biospheire. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Vorgeschichte und derzeitige Situation des Tatra National Parks. Der Tatra National Park (Tatrzanski Park Narodowy) wurde erst 1954 gegriindet, aber die Ideen zum Naturschutz im Tatra Gebirge wurden schon in der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts von Wissenschaftlern aus Krakau formuliert. Mittelpunkt der gegenwartigen Parkleitung ist das Waldmanagement und die wissenschaftliche Dokumentation der Besonderheiten dieses Gebietes. Im Park wird wissenschaftliche Forschung durchgeftihrt. Tourismus und Freizeitaktivititen werden auch geduldet, beschrinken sich jedoch auf bestimmte Gebiete und werden von zustandigen Behorden iiberwacht. Schafzucht, seit dem Mittelalter betrieben, bleibt wichtig, und Schifergeschichten geh6ren zum reichen Volksgut. Es wird vorgeschlagen, das gesamte Tatra Gebirge, den polnischen sowohl als den slowakischen Teil in das globale Netz der Biospharen Reservate miteinzubeziehen.
