This year marks the eightieth anniversary of the creation of the foundations for state protection of historical monuments in Poland; in 1914 the National Conservation Office was founded in Galicia (with headquarters in Krakow) and replaced the Groups of Conservators for Western and Eastern Galicia. The newly emergent Office became a model for administrative structures dealing with the protection of historical monuments in independent Poland. The article presents state conservators of art working in Krakow, starting with dr. Tadeusz Szydłowski, the first National Conservator of Historical Monuments in Galicia up to the present-day Voivodeship Conservator of Historical Monuments, the architect Andrzej Gaczoł, M. A.

The statute of 23 July 2003 about the protection of, and care for historical monuments essentially modified a number of heretofore legal institutions, thus affecting the legal position held by the owners of historical objects. The prime jurisdictional elements which exert greatest impact on the legal status of the owner include conservation directives and supervision, penal regulations, and the obligation to obtain numerous permissions. A prime feature which to a considerable measure shapes the legal situation of the owners of historical monuments is the asymmetry of legal relations, expressed predominantly in the fact that the state, represented by the conservation services, can intervene into the owners’ legal status. A distinct rise in the control privileges of the conservation offices justifies the thesis that such services are gradually evolving towards becoming a historical monuments police force. The expanded control system is not accompanied by regulations that balance numerous burdens associated with the possession of a historical monument. Attention is due to the construction of real estate tax exemption, a reduction of fees associated with the purchase of registered real estate and, finally, the possibility of obtaining a donation.

Advertisements accompany us in everyday life, and interfere in many spheres of our activities. They appear in means of mass communication, the Internet and on all kinds of buildings, including historic ones. The advertisements that are placed on historic buildings may be divided into two groups: permanent and temporary. Permanent advertisements (signs, neon signs, semaphores and so forth), which depict company logos, are currently an inseparable part of most historic Old Towns in Poland. Temporary advertisements, put up on historic sites during renovation periods, appear on tarpaulins that cover scaffolding. In Poland, the affixing of advertisements on registered historic sites is subject to particularly restrictive laws. This issue is regulated by a number of legal statutes, of which the most important is the statute protecting historic sites and regulating the maintenance of historic sites. The remaining statutes regarding this matter are the law from the 21st of March, 1985, regarding public roads and the law from the 7th of July, 1994, regarding building law. In the event an advertisement is hung on a registered historic site without permission, or if it is at odds with the conditions stated by law, the voivodeship’s conservator may issue a decision requiring that the historic site be returned to its previous state or that the site be reorganized within an established period of time. Independent of issuing orders, the voivodeship conservator is obliged to file a lawsuit in order to fine the party which affixed an advertisement to a historic site without permission. In practice, however, many advertisements are put up which are not in conformity with the law. Given this state of events, conservators do not manage to fulfill their duties when the binding regulations prevent quick and effective enforcement of the obligations required of the owners and users of historic sites. There are a few possibilities for fighting against advertising lawlessness. Above all, quick and unavoidable legal action is needed: in order to main consistency in the protection of historic sites, strict discipline should be upheld in ordering the immediate removal of advertisements from historic sites. Legal protection should also be extended to those historic sites which are not registered, and require that those who intend to place advertisements near historic sites receive suitable permission from conservator services. Nowadays, the sight of a historic building hung with advertisements is no surprise, though the legitimacy of this type of marketing arouses controversy, particularly in the context of large-format advertisements. Supporters of advertisements raise the point that money received from sponsors often means salvation for historic sites that are falling into ruin. Opponents are of the opinion that advertisements “disfigure” historic sites and prevent them from being viewed in their entirety. In seeking a solution to this problem, the arguments of both sides should be taken into account.

The issues of searching for artefacts and stray finds that are devoid of archaeological context as well as the activity of the so-called detectorists, unfortunately has its continuation to this day. Their activities, although usually aimed at acquiring remains from the Second World War, often lead to the discovery of various types of artefacts or even new archaeological sites. This article addresses the issue of the find from the northern part of the town of Reda, handed over to the Pomeranian Voivodeship Conservator of Monuments directly by the discoverer. The findings made in the course of the case allow to confirm the accidental nature of the find, which turned out to be a bronze axe. The whole specimen is 7 cm long with a blade width of 3 cm. It can be classified as Kopaniewo type, very popular in Pomerania. These artefacts were also known to occur in Greater Poland, west of the Odra River and in Jutland. In Pomerania, their greatest concentration comes from the Słupia, Łupawa and Łeba rivers basins. The origin and manufacture of Kopaniewo axes were to be locally Pomeranian. The specimen found in the town of Reda can be dated to the V period of the Bronze Age. For movable archaeological artefacts, the most important thing is that the fact of their acquisition should be accompanied by archaeological research, which consists not only in discovering and securing individual items, but also in recognizing and documenting the system of cultural layers. Hence, in the scientific community of archaeologists and conservators of monuments, more and more frequently occurs a postulate to strengthen the tools of control over the process of searching for artefacts and the legal solution to the status of groups dealing with field searches with the use of detectors and their cooperation with archaeologists. In the discussed case, however, the attitude of the finder should be praised, as he decided to notify the monuments protection authorities of the discovery.
