2011The landscape character has become a topical issue in many European countries as well as in the Czech Republic and in Slovakia in the 90s. Since that period a lot of scientists and experts of various disciplines have been solving problems of the landscape character, the question of its terminology and evaluation. The article is based on results of a master thesis, which deals with preventive landscape character assessment (LCA ). Proposed methodology of LCA was applied in the southwestern part of Biele Karpaty Mountains (White Carpathians) in Western Slovakia. The model area is interesting because of the unique cultural landscape with characteristic dispersed settlement and mainly extensive farming. A part overlaps with the Landscape Protected Area White Carpathians, whose boundary has changed during the time. Consequently more valuable places have been separated from less valuable areas from the aspect of nature and landscape protection. One of the aims of the master thesis was whether it applied to the landscape character as well.
