Water bodies
Pond distance to the boundary and a well
Czechia
The exact zone depends on the type and height of the structure, the exceptions in Section 11 and the applicable local planning documentation. Verify the specific project before construction.
Distances and rules
An ornamental pond is set back from the plot boundary so it stays accessible and water does not seep to the neighbour, and kept away from a drinking-water source so it cannot contaminate a well or borehole.
Official check
Confirm the project with the current planning documentation and building authority
Czechia — Decree 146/2024 Coll., Section 11
Important limitation
This is a planning aid, not a legal opinion. Before construction, check the local land-use rules, easements, the network/utility operator’s requirements and neighbour buildings.
