The author gives an assessment of historical, town-planning and
conservation studies prepared for the revalorization of small
and medium-sized towns in Poland. In his view, the hitherto studies
o f that kind referred only to historic parts of towns without paying
any attention to the environs. An example of the study combining
the two elements is provided by the work for Stary Sącz which
covers not only historic monuments but also the landscape, green
land, transport routes etc. The author goes on to describe small
Polish towns and states that being built mostly in wood they underwent
numerous disasters such as fires and therefore do not
look to attractive and are rather neglected. And only under the
coat of negligence their true values are hidden. Other towns represent
a rich variety o f styles, to mention only the Middle Ages
(Paczków), Renaissance (Zamość), Baroque (Silesian towns).
The main question in conservation works is to establish a criterion
of the importance of towns to be rescued. When preparing a revalorization
program one has to take into account the so-called
prognosic, i.e. to specify future function of the town, trends
and speed o f its development. This, inter alia, is linked with the
proper solution to transport problems, location of services, etc.
A key issue in town-planning is tis architecture. New house-building,
in rural regions in particular, is a phenomenon negative in respect
of both architecture and technology and constitues a threat to
old buildings. To illustrate this, the author aives observed by him
examples o f negative (Zakliczyn, Krynica) and positive approach
(Sopot, Bochnia).
In conclusion, the author o f the article says that new architecture
should be introduced into old towns but that it must fall in line
with old town-development thorugh properly chosen dimensions
and details (such as windows and moulds).
