Sažetak
This research focuses on morphological aspects of green spaces in 26 fortified European towns and cities. Such spaces are insufficiently acknowledged for the identities they confer and the advantages they provide for inhabitants. They are integral parts of inner urban fringe belts, and they are important both functionally and as attributes of heritage. Important aspects of these green spaces include their place within the system of defences, their various types of past and present utilization, their significance within the urban tissue and the need for their careful conservation.
