The reconstruction of the Vikarka building had two approaches. The first one was about modernization of its restaurant and the expansion of the building's functions for the needs of the Castle's operation.
Secondly, the revitalization of the building in terms od architectural expression in accordance with the care of monuments took place. The building was literally a mixture of architectural styles and the last documented building period of architecture which was valuable was classicism. Therefore the aim of the project was to build on this period.
However, some modern interventions that did not disturb the new concept, such as internal and external spinal staircase built in the 90s of the 20. century, were maintained.
When it comes to the interier and the premises for visitors, the main goal was to emphasize the history of the building and design it in traditional quality materials - wood, non-ferrous metals while the emphasis was placed in a high level of craftsmanship.
Despite the fact that premises of operating facilities are modern in terms of hygiene and functionality, we tried to be decent in the choice of colors and put the traditional building techniques first. The primacy of monument elements in the assessment of interventions applies wherever possible.
Another interesting issue was the rehabilitation of the Romanesque hall with a monastery cloister torso.
There is a large ventilation system with engine rooms in the attics of the building. The ventilation is led in the ceilings and risers in the original routes. The central heating is connected to the central boiler room via an exchanger station in the attics. Cast iron finned radiators were used in public areas. There is a new electrical wiring - both high and low current. The wiring was led in the original routes or in the floors if possible.
