Little bit of plans and sizes..

This post is gonna be mostly images to get the situation introduced..

Here comes general structure of the centre of city Nymburk. I have red just a few pages on history but it was one of important medieval fortresses in central Bohemia. Original builders (most probably colonistc from Netherland) situated it in artificial island. From one side natural river Elbe, and from other side digged two deep water channels. You see it on the picture as two green circle intersections on left and bottom. Those channels formed two circular walls called Little Wall and Big Wall. Little Wall - Mala Vala is important for this blog.

On this map you may see marked the location if the house.

Founding of the lifetime project mv22

We just bought our new but almost ancient (at least historical 200 years approximately) house. Long way in front of us and even if only to remember it all and may be somehow explain in details to our children (in case they are interested), I want to document all the reconstruction, choosing building materials, furniture etc. here online. Also for all my friends from some are very very distant to have a personal look or give a hand in building.
Now it seems all legal stuff is finished and mv22 (code standing for Malé Valy 22 Street and street number) should start soon in reality.
