Families of Pilecki, Stadnicki and Lubomirski were the next owners of Łańcut estate from the mid–14th century. In 1816 this estate was passed to Julia, the daughter of Stanislaw and Elizabeth (Isabella) from the Czartoryski Lubomirski Family. Julia was the wife of Jan Potocki, a famous writer and traveler. Then the property was inherited by their sons, Alfred and Arthur. The latter received Krzeszowice and Lancut inherited Alfred. In hands of his descendants remained Lancut to 1945, its last owner, Alfred Potocki, exported the most valuable archives of Austria in 1945. After the death of Alfred Potocki and his wife archives have been divided. Parchments and part of the papers were purchased by Dr. Tomasz Niewodniczanski (then he handed it to the collections of the Royal Castle in Warsaw), part of the financial, legal and personal documents from the Potockis’ Archive bought Brigham Young University, correspondence file and the rest of the financial documents acquired The Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences of America (PIASA). PIASA forwarded to AGAD one part of the legacy of Potocki Family in 1994. Then Brigham Young University sold its part of the Łańcut collection to Polish authorities in 2000. PIASA donated the last part of the Potockis’ Archive to AGAD thanks to the efforts of the Head Office of the Polish State Archives and many people of good will in spring of 2008. These are the materials from the sixteenth to 20th century, which are located in 76 boxes and measure six meters. The materials include: correspondence from 17th to 20th century, personal files of Potocki Family, and above all extremely valuable documents of county of Wiśnicz, province Krakow 16th-19th century. A few documents are related to other estates and public affairs. Reconstructed in this way The Potockis’ Lancut Archive became one of the most valuable archives of private provenance preserved in AGAD.

Tekst jest przeglądem materiałów archiwalnych pochodzących z archiwów hetmanów koronnych, przechowywanych obecnie w zasobach archiwalnych i zbiorach bibliotecznych na terenie Polski (Kraków, Kórnik, Łódź, Poznań, Warszawa) i Ukrainy (Kijów, Lwów). Publikacja nie jest przewodnikiem po archiwach hetmanów koronnych z okresu XVI–XVIII w., niemniej stanowi mocny fundament do stworzenia tego rodzaju pomocy archiwalnej. Przegląd zawiera charakterystykę różnych rodzajów archiwaliów, które autor uznał za integralnie związane ze sprawowaniem urzędów hetmańskich (akta osobiste, administracyjno-wojskowe, jurysdykcyjne, finansowe, korespondencja). Większość opisanych tu materiałów archiwalnych pochodzi z XVIII w, z archiwów następujących hetmanów koronnych: Jana Klemensa Branickiego, Franciszka Ksawerego Branickiego, Stanisława Mateusza, Wacława, Seweryna Rzewuskich i Adama Mikołaja Sieniawskiego.

This article is an overview of archival collections with provenance of hetman's archives, but physically separated into collections in archives and libraries across Poland (Kraków, Kórnik, Łódź, Poznań, Warszawa) and also Ukraine (Kiev, Lviv). Research, which later became an inspiration for this overview, has been conducted mainly in the early 90s. In the light of the above, this article does not claim to be called a "guide" to the royalhetmans' archives of the sixteenth through to the eighteenth century, but it could be viewed as an outline of such archival finding aid. This overview focuses on characteristics of different types of archival material, which author considered integrally connected to holding of an office of hetman, i.e.: personal, administrative and military, judiciary, financial, and also correspondence. Qualification criteria may raise some concerns, because selection of archives is subjective by nature, but also because in the discussed time period there was social consensus on the fact that one's private life and public sphere would overlap. Most of the archival materials used in this study comes from the hetman's archives of the eighteenth century (Jan Clement Branicki's; Franciszek Ksawery Branicki's; Stanisław Mateusz, Wacław, Seweryn Rzewuski's and Adam Mikołaj Sieniawski's). Eighteen century is considered to be the peak of development of private archives, which - without a doubt - had great impact on the preservation of hetman's archives of that period. Moreover, the fact that there is significantly larger collection of hetman's archives of that period, compared to previous two centuries, is the result of the hetman's office having a special place within the political system of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
