As one of the forms of safeguarding the ancient architectural and building objects against their destruction is widely enough applied a plaque bearing information or prohibitory text. The first such plaques were used on some Warsaw’s buildings as long ago as in 1906 but within the period until the World War II this action had no chances to be more broadly popularized. As a consequence of losses and damages caused by the last war a need has arisen to mark all the old buiddings and also their ruins thus protecting them from a total demolition with which they could be endangered in particular in the course of removing the war losses. In those early days of rebuilding the p la ques of that kind have been placed by many government agencies and institutions. A systematic action was undertaken and carried on by the Conservator’s Offices and the voluntary caretakers of historical monuments gathering in the Polish Touring Society. Since no explicitly expressed obligation as to placing of such information has been included to the Act on Protection of Historical Monuments and no official model of informative plaque was given, those placed on building had thus widely varying shapes and texts. Another until now unsolved problem is the marking of the historic urban centres and settings and of ancient parks. There is also an urgent need to introduce the specially designed road sings that could be used for signalling the vicinity of historic buiildings. In his present work the author has quoted the first attempt in this respect. In conclusion the author advanced a proposal that the information with concern to a given object should not be combined with official statements or the formal prohibitory provisions worded within the area of the same plaque. The international signs and markings provided by the Hague Convention should widely be used in peace times. Also the formal aspect of obligatory placing of plaques with valid sings on every historic building should be revised and brought to order as soon as possible.
