The port and the city of Gdynia were built because this was the political and economic necessity of the Polish state reborn after World War I. The success of the construction was determined by the determination of the state and the enthusiasm of the citizens, and the construction of Gdynia is the beginning of Poland’s maritime tradition and its modern society. It is also an outstanding example of modernist architecture.

The purpose of this study is to present contemporary problems of development and functioning of historical, original urban centers in small and medium-sized cities in Mazovia. The analyzed cities were divided into historical, of locational and pre-locational origin, and new, 19th and 20th century cities.

The purpose of the article is to present the European NUTS classification and its relevance to the Mazowieckie Voivodeship. In view of the new statistical division, Mazovia faces the challenge of increasing the sustainability of development policy with the assumption of “territorial cohesion, understood as the reduction of development disproportions in the Mazowieckie Voivodeship and the increase in the importance of the Warsaw Metropolitan Area in Europe.”

The article is an attempt to analyze the activities of museum institutions, their evolution and the role they have played throughout history. It touches on issues concerning their origins dating back to ancient times, up to the present – breaking the stereotypical structures, forms and functions of these institutions. In it, I would like to emphasize the need to continuously educate the public at such a level that it can assimilate the ambitious offer addressed to us by museum units, and at the same time introduce the aspect of innovative projects aimed at narrow groups of dysfunctional people. I was inspired by the activities of the Królikarnia Museum, which is a branch of the National Museum in Warsaw.

The specific element in it’s surrounding – remains. Roman Rotunda on Wzgórze Tumskie in Plock

Since the dawn of civilization, man – homo constructor – has intuitively sought to transform his surroundings and order them according to a sense known to himself, in a more or less permanent way. In this activity, not only great buildings, but even the least permanent human works, become, in a certain space of time, a trace – a signature of creative actions. The article contains a historical outline of the Romanesque rotunda – a special element in the space of the cultural landscape of the Tumskie Hill in Plock, which remains not only as a trace in the programmatic plane of the place, but today is a real trace – a symbolically marked place of its existence.

The purpose of the study was to create a spatial development concept for the Michalow Meadows area in Starachowice. The study area was selected taking into account environmental aspects. Included in the paper is information on relief, soil, climate and flood risk, which shows that most of the area of Łąki Michowskie is at risk of flooding. This fact, for the realization of investment objectives, imposes the necessity of regulating the Kamienna River and building a flood control embankment.

The article presents the evolution of the role of bicycle transportation presented in the planning documents of the Mazowieckie Voivodeship since 2004 and the prospects for implementing the provisions of the current Mazowieckie Voivodeship Spatial Development Plan, adopted in 2019. As a starting point, changes in the role of the bicycle in Denmark and the Netherlands, particularly in their capitals, were presented. Both countries are a good point of reference not only because of their successes in implementing bicycle policies, but also because of their area similar to the area of the Mazowieckie Voivodeship, and in the case of the Netherlands – additionally a similar population in the capital agglomeration.

The RIT formula – based on a territorial approach, as in the Integrated Territorial Investments for the Warsaw Functional Area – allows support for problem areas of strategic intervention identified in the Development Strategy of the Mazowieckie Voivodeship until 2030.

Paris parks in reclaimed spaces

What are the reclaimed spaces of the title? These are fragments of cities that in the last decades of the 20th century lost their former function, or for various reasons ceased to meet the requirements ascribed to this function. They have undergone functional and spatial degradation, becoming painful wounds in the fabric of the city, spaces devoid of life. They therefore require healing and revitalization. This problem primarily affects post-industrial areas, but also post-military and post-oil areas.
