The area of City Municipality of Lazarevac, which consists of a flood plain of the Kolubara River’s lower and central course and the Kolubara Coal Basin, was once a forested area with extensive farming. As a result of a large-scale coal mining, the Kolubara Coal Basin, the largest lignite coal deposit in the central part of Serbia, has undergone drastic changes with serious environmental consequences that caused a complete change of the landscape character. The analysis of secondary data, along with other study and technical documentation, relevant to the area of Lazarevac Municipality, as well as the assessment of a character and stability of the analysed part of the landscape, indicated a need for a proposing a plan for preservation and improvement of the degraded landscape’s visual aspect and attributes. The paper presents estimated values of the landscape character. They are a tool by means of which the spatial values are integrated into landscape planning. Networking and re-naturalisation of disrupted natural elements have been proposed, for the purpose of restoring their stability on the territory of Lazarevac Municipality.
