The Mazowieckie Voivodeship, created as a result of the country’s administrative reform in January 1999, is territorially the largest of the sixteen voivodeships, accounting for 11.4% of Poland’s area. Within its borders were included, to varying degrees, the lands of as many as nine previous provinces. In light of nationwide data on the stock of of immovable objects entered in the register of monuments, compiled by the National Heritage Institute based on registration decisions (as of October 4, 2010), Mazovia ranks third, with a result of 6343 objects.

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.

What is cultural heritage, who needs it and who owns it?

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.

Protection of cultural heritage – dilemmas of postmodernity

The two-dimensionality (tangible and intangible dimensions) of cultural heritage means that the protection of this heritage is, on the one hand, the material preservation of monuments, and on the other, concern for the preservation of historical memory. This makes heritage protection dependent on the way history is understood.
