Up to now, rural settlements in the voivodeship of the Polish capital have not been protected. Despite the fact that several studies on the protection of folk architecture appeared in the 1970s and 1980s, its resources had not been examined in a wider context of the protection of entire villages. Only projects preceding the organisation of the Ethnographic Park in Granica near Kampinos took into consideration the typology of the villages of this forest area which it was planned to copy in a future skansen. At present, the centre of the gravity of conservation undertakings has shifted from the protection of particular objects to rural complexes. Conservators face the necessity of protecting and retaining the most valuable and, simultaneously, representative villages of the voivodeship, which originated in various historical periods and are amassed in two complexes located in the environs of the Kampinos Forest. Each year brings irreversible changes in appearance — not only are traditional cottages succumbing to devastation but the same holds true for the system of situating the lots within concrete village configurations. In order to prevent further devastation of the villages it is necessary to prepare detailed conservation directives whose premises should include a willingness to preserve for future generations the former character of the Mazovian village.

Styl otwocki

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.
