The conservation of immobile monuments is perceived predominantly from the viewpoint of sciences about art and the technical sciences. Nonetheless, it possesses an organisational- legal dimension, which has been gaining increasing importance especially in the last decades; this holds true also for the Polish democratic state of the law as conceived by the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The aspect in question was significant for many historical conservation undertakings, today regarded as classical and concerning historical monuments in Polish lands. This was the type of conservation which during the nineteenth century involved the Cracow Cloth Halls (Sukiennice), performed according to a project by T. Pryliñski and supervised by him. Heretofore literature has not analysed more extensively the legal–organisational aspects of the investment connected with the aforementioned project, which has been characterised only marginally. The presented article deals with an analysis of assorted legal and organisational aspects, with reference to the contemporary legal system. It is characteristic that the typical feature of the conservation-investment efforts of the period, despite the absence of regulations concerning public commissions which would have corresponded to the legal standards of the time, was the attention paid to a proper administration of public means. The extremely important principle of the openness of public activity and expenses was realised in practice. Apart from the fundamental literature on the subject the text is based also on archival documents, including the resolutions of the Cracow Town Council, numerous reports and other archival material, supplemented with archival photographs, of which three, showing the end stages of the conservation of the Cloth Halls, had never been published. The purpose of the article, apart from its historical– cognitive function, is to draw attention to legal and organisational aspects of conservation, frequently ignored and, at times, even recognised as a hindrance. The presented study demonstrates that this aspect preceded, by no means as of today, the conservation proper of the historical monument, carried out by architects, conservators, “manual” workers and representatives of other professions, whose participation is indispensable in the conservation process as a whole.
