Summary/Abstract: The problem of fees that are collected in museums is multidimensional. It is essential to analyze a lot of acts in order to entirely understand this issue. Some regulations that are important as far as this theme is concerned may be found even in the Constitution, but study of other legal acts including museum act, consumer rights act or intellectual property act together with some executive acts is a base. Not only an issue of entrance fees and allowances or exemptions was presented, but also an interpretation of regulations related to collecting fees for e.g. lending, copying or photographing museum pieces was shown. This problem is important also in the context of museum management – owing to sensible configuration of fees policy it is possible to make a museum more attractive for visitors.
