The Otwock construction style, created at the end o f the nineteenth century by Michal Elwiro Andriolli, earlier than the earlier Zakopane style devised by Stanislaw Witkiewicz, is little known and insufficiently appreciated. The summerhouse architecture o f the environs o f Otwock is an unique phenomenon on the scale o f Mazovia. Many wooden buildings representing the style in question are no longer standing and numerous examples are decaying; nonetheless, a number o f houses displaying magnificent w ood carving is still to be found. Unfortunately, methods o f protecting wooden houses built in the Otwock style and their preservation for future generations have not been proposed up to now. This problem cannot be solved by listing particular objects in a register o f historical monuments. The salvage o f existing buildings by their present-day owners cannot be achieved without the assistance o f municipal authorities and the State Service for the Protection o f Historical Monuments.
