In Poland, there is a problem with the proper storage of portable archaeological monuments. This is one of the most important, if not the most important issue of archaeological heritage management. Archaeological monuments are owned by the State that does not properly fulfil its obligations. The lack of a good system and organization, effective law, and above all, proper storage space for archaeological monuments is a fact and this is a nationwide issue. This article deals with the legal and practical issues related to the subject matter. Several storage and study facilities, which were created in Poland by local archaeological milieus, are also presented. These are examples of good practices and responsible attitudes, which can serve as models to be followed. However, at the country level, the problem of storing archaeological monuments remains unresolved and requires a systemic approach, not the bottom-up initiatives and solutions.
