The paper In the article the genesis of the Volhynian Society of Friends of Science in Łuck (currently Ukraine) in 1935 is presented, as well as its considerable contribution during less than five years of its existence to propagation of science, as well as support for and pursuing of scientific research covering all branches of knowledge about Wołyń. It is shown that the society created and managed specialist scientific units, as libraries, archives, laboratories and museums. by taking the Volhynian Museum in Łuck under its wing, WTPN played a considerable part in organisation and financing of excavations and saving archaeological monuments. Introduction reviews the state of research into organisation of protection and care of monuments, as well as authority of the provincial (or district) conservators of monuments in the interwar Poland. In the decree of the regency council of October 1918 on care of the monuments of art and culture, conservation services taking care of prehistoric monuments were not singled out, despite firm demands to do so made by the circles of Polish prehistorians – archaeologists. The fact that during the whole interwar period no full-time jobs were created for conservators, managing specialist fields of cultural heritage, including conservators – prehistorians, was accounted for poor financial condition of the state. It concerned also lack of any separate fund for research and restoration of archaeological monuments. throughout this whole period, archaeological supervision in the country was exercised by delegates. At the beginning, those were representatives of the National Circle of Conservators of Prehistoric Monuments (PGKZP), and from 1928 – the National Archaeological Museum in Warsaw (PMA). This article describes institutional protection of prehistoric monuments in the Volhynian province in the years 1922-1939. It was provided by PGKZP and PMA delegates: Jakub Hoffman and Aleksander Cynkałowski. not only were the legal rights outside their competences but also financial resources at their disposal for saving the discovered archaeological monuments were very limited. When depicting the circumstances of establishment in the Polish eastern borderland of this non-governmental institution, i.e. WTPN in Łuck, the authors wanted to highlight its unquestioned influence on scientific studies conducted in Volhynia in many different fields of knowledge: geology, agriculture, biology and entomology, as well as the humanities. rapid development of the Public Library in Łuck that possessed a scientific department and a collection of manuscripts, swift inventorying of archives, as well as reorganization and enlargement of the Volhynian Museum, all of this proves that WTPN functioned dynamically during such a short period of time. The society’s legal form – non-government institution – with its effective, professional and fair management made it possible to obtain financial support not only from the government, through the National Labour Fund or National Culture Fund, but also from Volhynian local government, banks and enterprises. Apart from subsidizing geological research (for strategic reasons), considerable financial resources were allocated for i.a. archaeological research, which is recognized in Łuck, Ukraine, until today, in transformed social-historical relations and in so different political realities. The last chapter presents the profiles of persons who rendered particularly great service for the Volhynian Society: Henryk Józewski - Volhynian provincial governor, Julian Nieć – well promising historian and director of the Society’s Scientific Units, and most of all Jan Fitzke – archaeologist, memorable researcher of Volhynia’s past.

The 700th anniversary of granting civic rights to Wieliczka inspired a closer look at the history of protection and conservation of Wieliczka historical monuments. Conservation traditions in Wieliczka go back to the late 19th century, when St Sebastian's church, built in the 16th c. of larch wood, was renovated. The church was the only object, apart from the famous Salt Mine, which for centuries had been associated by the inhabitants of Wieliczka with the wealth and power of Poland from the times before partitions. The conservation was initiated and nearly completely financed by the citizens, organized in the Committee for the Protection of St Sebastian's Church. Extensive renovation works were supervised by Sławomir Odrzywolski, an architect and conservation specialist. One of the participants was Włodzimierz Tetmajer, a painter and writer, a wall-know representative of the artistic trend called „The Young Poland" (Art Nouveau). Between the world wars the management of the Salt Mine and the Cracow Voivodship Monument Conservation Office undertook a renovation and re-gothicization of the fourteenth-century defensive tower preserved near the Salt Mine Castle complex. The works were planned by an outstanding architect and conservation specialist, Zygmunt Hendel, and supervised by architect Henryk Jasieński. In the years 1 9 4 5 -1 9 8 0 the most important problem in Wieliczka in this field was to save the remains of the central wing of the mediaeval Salt Mine Castle, which for centuries had been the seat of the Mine managers. The so-called ,,House-in-the-Mine" was ruined by explosions of Soviet air bombs in January 1945. The initial plan was to leave the Castle's fragments as a socalled „permanent ruin", but in 1958 the voivodship monument conserver, Dr Hanna Pieńkowska, decided that it should be rebuilt. In 1966 Professor Alfons Długosz, a painter and photographer, the initiator of the Cracow Salt Mines Museum, proposed to adapt the Castle for a museum. Eighteen years after Dr Pieńkowska's decision (after overcoming numerous difficulties which are elaborated on in the article) Cracow conservation Workshop started the work. The reconstruction of the House- -in-the-Mine took 8 years. In 1985 three permanent exposition were opened in the Castle interiors: an archaeological one, a historical one and an exhibition of saltcellars from the Cracow Salt Mine Museum collection. After World War II several projects of a complete revival of the historical centre of Wieliczka were prepared. The arrangement of the „town at the Great Salt" goes back to the 13th c. The original oval arrangement around a market place was replaced in the times of king Casimir the Great (mid 14th c.) by the chessboard plan, which has survived until the present moment. In 1968 Wieliczka was included into the list of 17 most valuable urban complexes in Poland, which the then authorities wanted to reconstruct and bring back to the state of splendour. This action did not cause the expected results. After 1974, due to organizational chaos following the new administrative division of the country, new housing quarters in Wieliczka were built in the way that degraded the historical spatial arrangement. In the centre large and intrusive buildings such as a supermarket, a post office and a restaurant with a big parking place were situated. At the end of 70s a plan of the development of the Cracow urban complex was worked out and accepted. It assumed that Wieliczka would be incorporated into nearby Cracow. In the years 1980-1983 a very detailed study devoted to the history and conservation problems of Wieliczka, commissioned by the Voivodship Monument Conserver, was prepared. Its authors, Z. Beiersdorf and B. Krasnowolski, formulated some generals rules useful in creating new town plans and in the conservation of individual historical objects in Wieliczka. It is worth stressing that there are nearly 300 of such objects in the town. In the years 1 984-1986 architect A. Dobrowolski from the Office of the Development of Cracow, also commissioned by the Voivodship Monument Conserved, prepared a plan of conservation and adaptation of the Old Town in Wieliczka. The plan was based on historical studies and preserved most of the town's culturalł values. It also specified the criteria of its realization in the changing conditions of Polish social life and economy. The author of the article points out that the complicated process of full conservation of a historical urban complex requires long and costly work. It should be preceded by reconstructing the significance of the town as a synonym of a community with history-based structure. In the case of Wieliczka it means reconstructing the consciousness of a community living in a town with 700 years of history, a town which, thanks to the magnificent Salt Mine - included into UNESCO's first List of World Cultural and Natural Heritage in 1978 - attracts numerous visitors from Poland and from abroad.

This year marks the eightieth anniversary of the creation of the foundations for state protection of historical monuments in Poland; in 1914 the National Conservation Office was founded in Galicia (with headquarters in Krakow) and replaced the Groups of Conservators for Western and Eastern Galicia. The newly emergent Office became a model for administrative structures dealing with the protection of historical monuments in independent Poland. The article presents state conservators of art working in Krakow, starting with dr. Tadeusz Szydłowski, the first National Conservator of Historical Monuments in Galicia up to the present-day Voivodeship Conservator of Historical Monuments, the architect Andrzej Gaczoł, M. A.
