Bagry Lake – volume 2. History written in cartographic archives

Abstract

One of the biggest and the most valuable water bodies in the aspect of nature, landscape, economy and recreation, localized within the city of Krakow is the Bagry Lake (Bagry Reservoir). Despite the fact that mining stopped in 1970s, the water body has not been inventoried so far (including hydrographical survey) and has not been investigated in an interdisciplinary way. Although it is a relatively new object, in the preserved publications and local press articles it is difficult to find information about the history of the origin and the stages of the development of the water body. The analysis of archival cartographic materials and hydrographical measurements made by the author makes a perfect supplementary material to learn about history of the formation of such an urban water body, specific in ecological and landscape-related aspect.
