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.

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 result of the process of economic transition in Poland, which has been going on for more than 20 years, is the progressive modernization of industry. With the very dynamic development of technology and industry, monuments of technology are increasing at a rapid pace. The existence of many of them is threatened due to their apparent uselessness.

Recognition of the stock of historic parks and gardens on Warsaw’s territory and an assessment of their current state of preservation are needed for the proper formation of conservation policy and management of these objects. For the most part, the decisions entering parks in the register of monuments in the capital date from the 1960s and 1970s and do not specify the subject and boundaries of protection. In the body of the decision, only the name and address of the park is given, and the justification for the entry is customarily the historic, artistic and historical value.

August 1828, eighteen-year-old Fryderyk Chopin spent in Sanniki, at the home of his school friend Konstanty Pruszak. This information raises a number of questions and doubts. Where did he live? What did the Pruszaks’ summer residence look like at the time? Was it a palace that at least partially resembles a contemporary one? In January 2011, renovation and adaptation work began in the historic palace complex in Sanniki to become the Frederic Chopin European Art Center.

The erection of the Transatlantic Broadcasting Radio Station was the largest radio communications investment in the history of the Second Republic. The installation had a huge range and used state-of-the-art solutions. Its area became the scene of bloody battles during the defense of Warsaw in September 1939. In early 1945, the Transatlantic Broadcasting Radio Station was completely destroyed.

Socialist Realist buildings occupy a large part of the main arteries in Warsaw. Marszałkowska, Krucza, Jerozolimskie Avenues, Grójecka, Solidarności Avenue are clad with them. They are an eloquent testimony of their times and, like the old buildings, tell us about the past. Before the category of monument was defined and the need to protect works of the past was understood, most of the Colosseum and the Acropolis were demolished, Paris was rebuilt.

The paper is an attempt to answer the question of whether every property is worth and should be included in the register of monuments, posed from the point of view of the owner of a property “with a past”. I discuss the problem using the example of a manor house in Huta Minska, showing the difficulties faced by its owners and the changes they make to this property, related to necessary repairs and necessary modernization.
