Dutch colonization of flooded riverine areas, commonly referred to as Hollander colonization, appeared in the Polish territories in the early 16th century. The influx of settlers was caused, on the one hand, by religious persecution and numerous religious pogroms against members of the New Baptist and Mennonite sects, which arose in the era of the religious reformation, and on the other hand by practical considerations: the colonists represented a high level of economy and settler culture, which made them highly desirable settlers.

The genesis of the erection of castles in the Polish lands dates back to the 12th-14th centuries. Individual rulers and princes liquidated the previous wooden and earth or stone fortresses, building brick residences – castles, which were to perform numerous functions, not only defensive ones. The article reviews the most important castles built in Mazovia on the initiative of the princely line of the Mazovian Piasts.

The protection and care of immovable monuments requires appropriate legal instruments. Laws should clearly define the subject of protection, the principles, goals and methods, as well as the powers and duties of both the users of monuments and public administration bodies.

Cultural heritage management is transdisciplinary in nature, requiring frequent transitions between different disciplines, adopting different points of view, not always agreeable. Using examples from the area of Mazovia, I try to show the points of intertwining of issues in aesthetics, philosophy of culture and conservation and preservation of monuments – nodes and places of transition between disciplines, in which there is a change (usually imperceptibly, gradually) in the meaning of various categories, concepts and meanings.

The article deals with the definition of cultural heritage, its value to society, and the problem of its ownership and the conflicts that arise around the ownership of cultural heritage. We can call human creations, as well as creations of nature that have spiritual values, cultural goods. Cultural heritage, on the other hand, is that part of past cultural property that has been recognized as valuable by subsequent, succeeding generations and has thus survived to the present day.
