The greenhouse
The hemispherical greenhouse – its shape allows for a more efficient use of energy and reduces the loss of heat. It uses 20% less energy than traditional greenhouses, and it can be used from early spring to late autumn without the necessity to heat it.
Domestic sewage treatment plant HERVA
The wastewater from the house goes into three septic tanks. After it is treated mechanically, it is drawn out of the septic tanks with a transportation mechanism into a biozone. This contains slowly rotating biodisks, on which a biomass of micro-organisms live. It is there that the actual treatment process takes place. The treated wastewater (the second class of purity) is released from the treatment tank through a tilted overflow. Purified and oxygenated, it flows into a small pond in which fish live and various waterplants grow.

The Conference Building
The ECOCENTRE’s most recent building in which various meetings take place. It is an energy-saving building whose walls are made of clay and straw. A high-efficiency biomass stove is used to heat it. Energy is generated by pv modules, and water is heated by solar thermal collectors.
Eco-houses – The workshop
Clay and Straw Constructions – the Secrets of Ecological Houses.
Dates of the workshop:
will be specified
Every third house in the world is built of clay and straw. Such houses are healthy, ecological, and cheaper to build.
The house
It was built in 1901 and is made of wood and stone.
The ecological technologies that are used in this house include: solar-thermal collectors – these use solar energy to heat water and provide hot water from spring to autumn (around 6 months). One flat collector (one metre by two metres) heats 80 to 100 litres of water – the amount that can be accumulated in an average boiler.
Traditional Dishes
The participants in workshops will have an opportunity to taste and learn how to prepare:
- firm cheese
- herb, or garlic cheese
- bean, or soya pate
- potato mayonnaise
- wholemeal cakes
- beetroot soup
