Market squares of small south-eastern Polish towns yesterday and today

Alley as a Determinant of the Conservation Status of the Identity of the European Cultural Landscape on the Example of South-Eastern Poland
The problems of landscaping of Poland become in recenttimes significant. On a level with the protection of the natural environment they become the determinant of national culture, its environmental and aesthetic awareness. The article presents the role of the alley in shaping the identity of the Polish cultural landscape, including in the background of legal requirements. The road or a street apart from acting communication functions is also an element which orders the space. In many places of Poland, both the city tissue, this with historic values as well as former transport routes through various measures, including spatial transformations have been undergone and continue to undergo major reconstruction, which is often equivalent to the destruction of tree stand primarily. The remaining alleys in the contemporary perception of the urban landscape are the cultural heritage, mindlessly destroyed by more than 60 last years. Different activities superimpose here, both planning and cultural activities supported by most flawed, ineffective legislation, which provides no effective protection of alleys and the historic tree stand for today at roads, in the sacral and sepulchral setting-ups. Many historic alleys do not longer exist, although today's roads and streets were mostly carried out along the historic trails. The article focuses on the causes of this phenomenon. The article presents the history of legislation on the greens, which existed in Poland since the XVIII century, the rules on the order of planting and maintaining trees on public roads from 1922, from 1936, which had a significant impact on shaping the identity of the cultural landscape in Poland

The buildings that were raised during that time have features of a modern functional architecture and became a cultural heritage of the city. In the recent years, we can observe an increased interest in the Polish industrial architecture of the interwar
era. At the same time, there are numerous cases of extensive degradation of typical architectural elements and details that identify this type of architecture. This process is mostly caused by the lack of knowledge of the cultural importance of industrial architecture as well as the lack of effective forms of its preservation. The article describes the actual technical condition of interwar modernist architecture in Poland and problems of protection of this heritage. Examples of architecture built in the COP (Central Industrial Region) area show the present state of modernist architecture preservation in Poland
