The author of the article presents the development of organization of investment services for remedial and building works. Then he proceeds to describe the present situation in this field and postulates changes for the future. In 1945 the main difficulty lay in the problem of p re paration of working plans concering conservation; it also consisted in the impossibility to find an executor. At that time the re existed and functioned offices of provincial conservators of monuments. They were however, unprepared to fulfill the duties. In these circumstances, the institutions that managed works connected with removal of war damage (such as Bureau for Rebuilding of the Capital, Direction of Restoration in Gdańsk, Szczecin and Wrocław) became investors. This for first time in the history of Polish preservation of monuments historical objects were included in national investment plans. In 1958 provincional restorers of monuments took over the investor’s duties. They organized gangs to perform conservation works. In order to lighten the task of conservation service, plenipotentiaries of the minister of culture and art were appointed. Their job was to deal with such problems as preparation of capital expenditure for remedial works (e.g. in Nieborów and Krasiczyn). However, no specialistic investment service to help provincial conservators has been brought into being until now; this always delayed-conservation works. The author also reminds th a t Administration of Investments of Warsaw Monuments, which was active in Warsaw from 1955 till 1968, conducted the remedial works in Wilanów, Łazienki, the Old Town and Radziejowice. The institution performed its duties very well and th a t is why its activity was highly appreciated. In 1968 it was transformed into Administration of Investments of Culture Objects and in 1971 — incorporated in the State Enterprise Studios of Monument Conservation. In those years investment services arose in various towns, e.g. in Zamość where over 300 million zlotis have been allocated to renovation of monuments in recent years. Accomplishment of works encountered to the absence of both any qualified conservation service and any investor. After numerous attempts had been made to overcome this situation Direction of Restoration of Monumental Complex in Zamość was called into being in 1973 to organize the process of investment and conduct all the conservation works. It .is th e first independent investment institution for a municipial complex of monuments in Poland. Its activities are divided into two stages aiming at complete restoration of the town. According to the author organizational operations in the field of monuments preservation should be considered as a specialistic sphere of conservation activities. Investment bodies for conservation — building works ought to be called into beining under the care of provincial conservators of monuments. The author also postulates reactivation of Administration of Investments of Historical Objects as an instotution central to the investment service of historical objects. It would control and coordinate activities of an the investments bodies th a t function within conservation services.
