Due to the approaching 1000th anniversary of the Polish State, at the end of 1948 the Department for Studies on the Origins of the Polish State as part of the General Directorate of Museums and Cultural Heritage was established at the Ministry of Culture and Art. Prof. Aleksander Gieysztor, a historian and medievalist from the University of Warsaw, became the president of the institution, while vice-presidents were K. Majewski, a classical archaeology professor, and archaeologist, associate professor Z. Rajewski. The office for the Studies on the Origins of the Polish State that consisted of a few employees was directed by Ph.D. R. Kiersnowski. The Department was involved in excavations of the most significant strongholds of the Piast State and it conducted interdisciplinary source studies in 1949-1953.

The aim of the paper is to present the beginnings of the Polish interest in the early-mediaeval past of Kołobrzeg (Kolberg) mainly on the basis of archival sources. For 200 years the town was an important German location, and since 1945 it has been a significant Polish place of memory. However, so far there are no studies dealing with the history of research on the town of Kołobrzeg, although such enquiry subsequently became a canvas of political narratives about the past. The limit of the time-scope covered in the paper is the end of the 1950s, when the first stage of archaeological works on the Kołobrzeg settlement in Budzistowo (Altstadt) were completed. In 1960 a number of enterprises were undertaken in connection with the celebration of the Millennium of the Polish State. The article attempts to answer the question why studies on Kołobrzeg were launched so late, whether it was a top-down or bottom-up initiative and what was the meaning of the research. The source base of the paper consists mainly of archival materials collected in state archives and scientific and cultural institutions.
