Following the decision on the Park’s location\u0000in 2011, the construction works were conducted for several\u0000following years. They had been preceded by fieldwork allowing\u0000to identify six buildings for translocation: residential\u0000as well as farm and livestock structures. Constituting the\u0000most precious preserved examples of architecture related to\u0000the Olender settlement, they date back to the 18th and 19th\u0000centuries. Their deplorable technical condition found in the\u0000field was most commonly due to the lack of continuous care\u0000and to improper preservation of the buildings. Therefore the\u0000facilities’ translocation to the Park was the only chance of\u0000securing their effective preservation and survival. Owing to\u0000the varied structures, substantial alterations over the years\u0000and varied preservation state, the historic facilities transferred\u0000to the Park posed new conservation and ethnographic\u0000challenges. It goes without saying that any relocation of\u0000a building sets difficult conservation tasks, that it is a complex\u0000multi-stage process which requires contribution from\u0000representatives of various professions and trades, while its\u0000fulfillment goes well beyond any generally known ‘standards’,\u0000revealing new mysteries and problems which have to\u0000be solved in real time. What matters a lot in such projects\u0000is an appropriate attitude to a historic building, scientifically\u0000grounded, and supported with expertise, experience and\u0000reliable documentation.\u0000The methods and reconstruction means used in the\u0000translocation of the edifices to the Olender Ethnographic\u0000Park in Wielka Nieszawka described in the paper display the\u0000highest standards of open-air museology, owing to which\u0000the basic conservation rule, namely securing the historic\u0000monument’s authenticity, and thus its historical value,\u0000has been obeyed.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":36577,"journal":{"name":"Muzealnictwo","volume":"62 1","pages":"30-40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43550609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Owing to the introduced regulations, Polish\u0000museums were closed down on three occasions (14 March\u0000– 4 May 2020, 15 Oct 2020 – 31 Jan 2021, and 20 March –\u00004 May 2021). When searching for new forms of activity, in\u00002020, museums made an enormous technological progress,\u0000and mastered numerous new competences allowing them\u0000to move in cyberspace with ease. The pace at which\u0000they introduced various ‘online’ formats is worthy of\u0000appreciation. Presently, the time has come to ask whether\u0000the effectiveness in reaching the public via such means truly\u0000contributed to consolidating a strong bond with them. In\u0000order to get the answer to this, it is necessary to critically\u0000assess the museum efforts, which will not be possible\u0000without researching into the Polish public over that period.\u0000Wishing to voice my opinion in the critical discourse\u0000on the museums’ activity during the pandemic, I have\u0000decided to share my experience from a selected activity\u0000of the Museum of Krakow: I have presented the effects of\u0000the social Programme titled ‘Stay at Home and Tell Krakow’\u0000(#zostanwdomuiopowiedzkrakow).\u0000The Museum created this programme convinced that\u0000a city dweller, exposed to the oppression of the pandemic\u0000will feel the urge to share his or her experience. Apparently,\u0000the appeal made by the Museum of Krakow was eagerly\u0000responded to. The Museum received ‘stories’ about the\u0000pandemic in different formats: prose, poems, diaries, visual\u0000arts, and even musical pieces and artifacts.\u0000The results of the ‘Stay at Home and Tell Krakow’ Programme\u0000are currently hard to sum up, however, what seems a valuable\u0000and worth analysing experience is the focus of residents’\u0000attention on the Museum which they considered an\u0000institution trustworthy enough to entrust it their private,\u0000often intimate reflections on living through that challenging\u0000period.\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":36577,"journal":{"name":"Muzealnictwo","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41795930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
