The paper reviews the role of dialectology in preserving the dying out or endangered Polish dialects that form a major and representative part of the intangible cultural heritage. Dialectology – apart from its typical research tasks – is thus responsiblefor preserving the valuable heritage; disseminating knowledge on dialects; depicting the relations between dialects, history, and folk culture; raising the general public’s awareness of the position occupied by dialects among the varieties of Polish. Most importantly, in view of standard Polish being the prevailing variety, dialects need to be shown as embedded in family, social, local, and regional perspectives.Preserving the endangered dialects, as well as the whole intangible cultural heritage, is a multifaceted undertaking that comprises in the first place documentation, description, and scientific interpretation of dialectal material. Research on dialects need to be popularized in order to raise the language awareness of the Polish society. This in turn may indirectly inspire actions aimed at promoting local dialects, appreciating the regional speech varieties, changing the social perception of dialects by means of both formal and informal education, and finally – revitalizing the dialects that are the least known and scarcely ever used
