The municipality of Březno opens a new chapter of its primary school and announces a one-phase open architectural competition for its revitalization and adaptation to the current needs of the municipality and its young generation.
The brief for the competition is to build a new building for the Březno Primary School on the site of the current school building. The one-story building currently used by the primary school no longer meets the spatial and qualitative requirements of the rapidly developing village. Due to the presence of asbestos in the 1980s construction, it is not the intention to retain the building. The new construction is therefore intended to replace the existing school.
