Project Co-Financed by the European Regional Development Fund Under the Operational Programme Innovative Economy the GUIDEBOOK Project co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund under the Operational Programme Innovative Economy THE GUIDEBOOK A CONDITION OF POLISH MONUMENTS PROTECTION AND MAINTENANCE INDUSTRY YEAR OF PUBLICATION: 2012 onuments conservation and protection are fields in which MPoland – in spite of historical conditions, or maybe thanks to them – has been excelling other countries. Long lasting period of lack of sovereignty and threat of losing the national identity made Polish scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, as well as people from outside the aforementioned branch of industry, to focus on saving historical buildings and masterpieces of art for future generations. A combination of unfavorable occurrences, paradoxically, created the necessity to prepare ways and methods of conservation, which - as it turned out later – were crucial for development of the monu- ments protection industry in other countries as well. Reconstruc- tion of historical settlements, carried out on a great, unprecedent- ed scale, made the Polish conservation-related concepts, as well as their executors well known in all places in the world, where the outcomes of natural disasters or human activities has created ne- cessity to revitalize damaged objects. In many cases, training new craftsmen in teams of conservators translated to education of top class professionals, who become extremely wanted experts very quickly and were members of teams saving numerous monuments from destruction all over the world, including those, which are registered on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Rich experiences from archeological missions, combined with innovative approach, based on direct cooperation of professional from various fields, re- sulted in development of interdisciplinary approach to cultural her- itage protection – which is nowadays considered rather obvious. 5 Photo by: POLYCHROME PAINTING AND SCULPTURES CONSERVATION INSTITUTE The UMK Fine Arts DepartmentTorun, in Poland 6 7 Department, and the Technology and Techniques of Monuments Department.

One of the key factors of a successful destination is its positive image that allows it to effectively attract visitors. This paper investigates the impact of selected elements of material cultural heritage on the image of four Polish metropolitan destinations. The results indicate thathistorical and cultural heritage plays a more significantrole in creating an attractive image of a city than the city’s contemporary and post-industrial facilities. Cities perceived as historical areconsideredas much more attractive to spend free time in than cities predominantly associated with industrial functions. Moreover, the presented research results confirm a relationship between the familiarity of a destination and its positive image. These features have also been observed in previous studies.

An abundance and variety of nature, histori- cal monuments, and a respect for traditions, intriguing modern times, and hospitality are some of the elements which make our country very interesting for foreign visitors. The emergent modernity of contemporary Poland moves forward with full respect and consideration for the traditions and the cultural differences of its regions. The Polish landscape is very diversified. The south contains the Carpathian and Sudeten Mountains. The Lowlands and Uplands stretch across central Poland. The northern part of the country with its Masurian and Pomeranian lake lands has its well forested, rolling hills, dotted with thousands of lakes and further north we have the sandy beaches on the Baltic coast. Our eventful history and central location in Europe, where religions and the influence and authority of many nations have met over the centuries, has made Poland a country that intrigues and fascinates visitors with its material and spiritual culture. The larger Polish cities are the main destination for many travellers. These cities possess a wealth of historical monuments, are host to prominent artists and offer a variety of cultural events. Polish cities are also visited by business people, and of course shoppers, sometimes playing the role of an appealing stopover for these travellers on their way to other parts of Europe.

  • “Underground Built Heritage”: a Theoretical Approach for the Definition of an International Class
    heritage Article “Underground Built Heritage”: A Theoretical Approach for the Definition of an International Class Roberta Varriale Institute for Studies on the Mediterranean, National Research Council of Italy (CNR), 80134 Naples, Italy; [email protected] Abstract: Although nowadays sustainable reuse of underground cultural heritage has become a global trend, as yet Underground Built Heritage (UBH) is not regarded as a distinctive class eligible for protection. After a critical overview of previous attempts at defining underground heritage by associations such as UIS, SSI and UNESCO, this article updates the definition of the new-born class of UBH on the basis of three main criteria: position (by introducing the concept of Geographical Zero Level), manmade character, and cultural relevance, both material and immaterial. Building on the outputs of several projects devoted to this topic and the results of academic expertise in this field, the author proposes a new dedicated methodological approach consisting of a chart for the classification of artefacts as historical UBH and a strategy for their reuse based on a four-level scale: Re-inventing, Re-introducing, Re-interpreting and Re-building. Keywords: underground built heritage; definition; classification; reuse Citation: Varriale, R. “Underground 1.
