The article presents a program o f tasks set for the Centre which is a continuation o f activities o f the Office for Research and D o cumentation o f Historic Monuments in the voivodship o f Gdańsk. The program goes in three directions : — spatial scope covering cultural landscape, town- and rural- -planning and green planting, — architecture and building as well as technical constructions, — movable monuments. The fundamental task o f the Centre is to protect cultural landscape, i.e. historic land as a basic component o f ,,the tradition of the place” . First studies in this field were undertaken in 1978. They were made use o f in working out conservation guide lines for the plan o f a local spatial development in the Gdansk voivodship till 1995. The area o f historic cultural landscape covers 30 per cent o f the voivodship. Still, this form o f spatial cultural heritage till the seventies had been left outside interests o f the conservatory profession. Documentation and research works as well as recording and legislative operations carried out in the Centre will serve as a scientific- research background in all conservation works. Tasks set in this field are as follows : — With respect to the studies on the area o f historic cultural landscape there exists a necessity to undertake comprehensive, interdisciplinary studies, which shoula result in a map of a full stock o f examples o f spatial cultural landscape, along with a valorization o f cultural landscape. — Studies on urban complexes in the region, on medieval prelocation towns in particular, urban settlements founded at the end o f the 19th century and in the 1st half o f the 20th cent. Of particular importance is the emphasis put on problems o f preserving an endangered integrity o f the historic centre o f Gdańsk within present fortifications. — Studies will be carried out on the protection o f rural complexes perceiving their chance o f survival in enclaves o f cultural landscape parks. — The studies will also include parks and gardens, avenues and cemeteries. — The register o f building and architecture will be made complete ; records to be made up and legislative tasks carried out at regularly ; opinions, historic characteristics, scientific and conservatory documentation will — in the first place — be prepared for buildings meant for social use. — Research works in the field o f movable historic monuments will be aimed at a full recognition o f their stock. Buildings will also be examined with regard to describing materials, techniques and the condition o f their preservation in view o f conservatory needs. — The main task o f Documentation Section will be to create a central catalogue covering collections o f all archival materials concerning fields o f interest and also to prepare a system o f informative transformation o f the data. „Teka Gdańska” will continue to appear. — We shall also be interested in cooperation with abroad in the field o f our statutory activities, with similar organizations in towns which are on close friendly terms with Gdańsk and especially with Leningrad. — The above activities are to serve a full recognition o f cultural circles, as this the base o f the only proper protection and shaping o f the human environment.
