Polish professionals are skillful in the field of protection and maintenance of heritage of their culture. The difficult past of the country and massive damages during the Second World War somehow forced them to develop skills and knowledge on the many fields of the industry. The Polish conservation legacy is simply outstanding: many architecture and building remnants that have been saved, moveable masterpieces of art, archiving of abundant explorations-related documentation, renovation of historic centers of the biggest Polish cities (Gdansk, Torun, Cracow or Warsaw, the Old Town of which was almost completely destroyed during the Second World War), as well as many revolutionary discoveries during excavations taking place in Egypt, Syria, Sudan, Lebanon, and Turkmenistan.

The Polish technical and conservation abilities are appreciated and respected all over the world. Polish archeologists discovered the Merefnebef’s tomb, as well as unique reliefs and paintings in Egyptian Sakkara. A team of specialists is currently working on virtual reconstruction of destroyed temple of the pharaoh Totomes III in Deir el-Bahari located in Upper Egypt. The Polish team of archeologists, while taking part in the excavation works in Dongola in Sudan – the former capital of the United Kingdom of Nubia, discovered few churches in the area, for example: a mausoleum, a church with granite columns serving as a cathedral and a building in the shape of the cross. In return for their engagement in the excavation works, members of the Polish archeological team received half of all discovered frescoes as a gift. It is possible to admire them all in the National Museum in Warsaw. Polish archeologists and conservators can be encountered even in the most exotic countries in the world.
