The Society for the Protection of Historical Monuments was established on 17 January 1974 as an heir and continuator of the Society for the Protection of Monuments of the Past which from 1906 to 1944 made a significant contribution to Polish culture. The prime goals of the Society’s statue are: 1. stimulating social awareness of the rank and role of historical monuments conceived as national culture as well as of the ensuing need for social protection over them; 2. encouraging social initiative and embarking upon undertakings which strive towards the protection and conservation of historical monuments. The realization of these tasks required the founding of 24 departments in various regions of Poland and 6 commissions dealing with i.a. salvaging historical cemeteries of various creeds, relics of Jewish culture and artworks of the Eastern rite Church. The Society also organizes scientific sessions and symposia on the protection and conservation of historical monuments; it publishes studies popularizing knowledge about the national heritage, conducts training for teachers and guardians of monuments and organizes Days of European Heritage.
