The author describes the process o f renewing the historic town of Zamość in the years 1964—1980. He also presents the attempts undertaken to adequately organize investment services as well as difficulties faced by various organizations set up in order to cope with the problem of the renewal. Numerous initiatives and ideas, some of which have been put into effect, have also been discussed. A leading role in the renewal o f Zamość played a local branch office of the historic monuments conservation workshop, whose work concentrated on technical, scientific and conservation documentation and on the reconstruction and preservation of historic buildings, conservation o f sculptures, paintings, etc. Twelve other conservation workshops from all over Poland as well as a number o f specialized enterprises (performing i.a. mason, road-building and electrical works) also participated in preparatory works undertaken to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Zamość. The author suggests that the following conditions should be fulfilled when carrying out works on the old town complexes: — (1) the Main Board for the Renewal of the Old Town should represent a body of the Town Council, with a decisive voice in the field o f restoration policy, (2) state-owned historic monuments conservation workshops should constitute the main organization for research and planning works; they should also execute building and conservatioi works on the structures with the highest artistic and historic values, (3) the architectonic conservation council should be a body that would approve and solve all problems associated with conservation, designing, execution and investment.
