The issue of urban revitalization is becoming increasingly important in Poland. The reason for this is not only the degree of degradation of many cities or parts of them, which leads to a decline in their attractiveness or the appearance of problems of a social and economic nature. The growing importance of urban revitalization is also due to the fact that its positive effects can affect the situation not only of the local system, but also of supra-local systems, stimulating in them the desired phenomena and processes, important for development in a broader spatial perspective.

The article addresses the issue of public spaces. An attempt was made to define them and to indicate the role that these spaces play in the urban tissue and in the lives of residents. Particular attention was paid to the problem of marginalization and degradation of public open spaces in the Mazowieckie province. Among the reasons for this state of affairs were mentioned legal inconsistencies, unawareness of the importance and consequences of decisions made, and the victory of economic values over social ones.

Interest in “antiquities”, in addition to scientific, also had very clear patriotic overtones in Poland. Protection of the national heritage with emphasis on the cultural and historical distinctiveness of the lands under the rule of the three partitioners was an agenda pursued by a significant part of the intellectual community.
