The 2023 year is the anniversary of the establishment of the first National Park on the Czech Republic territory. The Giant Mountains / Krkonose National Park was declared on the 17th May 1963. The Park was established with the goal to maintain and improve its unique environment, especially the conservation or renewal of self-controlling functions of natural systems, strict protection of wild animals and plants and preservation of the typical landscape. The territory offers possibility for scientific and educational activities and development of sustainable tourism and recreation that does not impair the environment.

Various activities celebrate this anniversary (organized by the NP administration), including concerts, exhibitions or   meetings with people in different places of the Park region.   The special logo symbolizes variability of this unique environment.
