Summary/Abstract: Walking through the streets of Chrudim gives the impression that it’s like any other Czech city. With a population of about 24,000, Chrudim, 110 kilometers east of Prague, has a long, pretty square dominated by a large church. A mix of modern and baroque buildings, the requisite textile stores and herna bars - you could be in any one of a number of small towns dotted across the country. But underneath its typical appearance lies an award-winning sustainable community.
