In doing so, however, the legislature did not completely do away with the constituent elements of emphyteusis—namely, the existence of an immovable property, the emphyteuta's right to full enjoyment of the property, the 100-year limit on the duration of the right, and the requirement that the emphyteuta make improvements that increase the value of the property in a significant manner. 1, record 1, English, - emphyteuta
