Ladies and Gentlemen, the latest issue of the Mazovian Voivodeship Self-Government’s scientific publication MAZOWSZE Regional Studies contains materials from the conference entitled Building the Future of Mazovia Together. The date of the conference coincided with the start of work on updating the Development Strategy of the Mazovian Voivodeship and the Voivodeship Spatial Management Plan. The update of the documents is taking place in a peculiar situation, as the shape of the European Union budget for 2014-2020 is still unknown.

The paradigm of sustainable development is now widely accepted, both globally and locally. However, only the full implementation of the concept of sustainable development into the various fields of knowledge, as well as the practice of programming and strategic planning, provides the basis for the implementation of socio-economic development that takes into account natural aspects and intergenerational justice.

Planning activities are purposeful: they should lead to the selection of appropriate development goals and appropriate ways to achieve them. The effectiveness of planning activities in the sense of creating rational (justified by conditions and needs) strategies, policies, plans and programs of action depends, among other things, on objective assessment of development phenomena and processes, as well as the ability to predict the occurrence of these phenomena and processes and their consequences.

The Warsaw Metropolitan Area Conference was organized by the Mazovian Regional Planning Office in Warsaw. Its purpose was to present the materials prepared since 2004 for the spatial development plan for the Warsaw Metropolitan Area and to confront them with plans drawn up in other European metropolises. The plans were also confronted in the context of the importance of metropolitan plans for regional development and their position in the planning system. The materials presented by the Mazovian Regional Planning Office were prepared in the form of the publication of the Study of the Spatial Development Plan of the Warsaw Metropolitan Area.

The article gives suggestions on how to include Mazovian monuments in the tourist movement and how to make monuments an attraction that will attract tourists every weekend. There are more than 6,000 listed monuments and more than 6,000 archaeological sites in Mazovia. However, few of them are known to the average Mazovian. That is why the idea of creating a Route of Mazovian Princes was born, which runs through the whole of Mazovia, linking about 100 localities worthy of visitors’ attention. Thematic tourist trails are one way to promote the region’s cultural heritage.

As envisioned by the Hague Convention of May 14, 1954, the Blue Shield mark was intended to serve a recognition function – to indicate objects and means of transport to be protected in the event of armed conflict. It has become an international symbol, protecting historic buildings from devastation and oblivion, used much more widely than provided for in the Convention. Many global heritage organizations and initiatives have adopted the mark as their own logo.

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.

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.
