The article aims to define the role of second housing on the Czech territory with regards to the current settlement structure and its history. The emergence of second houses that came to existence through functional conversion of formerly permanently inhabited houses can serve as one of indicators for delimitation of peripheral regions. Such peripheral regions, however, have specific characteristics as the use of these regions varies greatly during the year and even during one week.
