Changes in the Criminal Law System Regarding the Protection of Historical Monuments in Light of the Entry into Force of the Law Amending the Act on the Protection of Monuments and the Guardianship of Monuments and Other Laws on 22nd June 2018

Summary/Abstract: On the 22nd of June 2018, the Law amending the Act on the Protection of Monuments and the Guardianship of Monuments and Other Laws was enacted. The new Act made changes to several previous legal Acts by introducing new provisions to the Act on the Protection of Monuments and the Guardianship of Monuments concerning the new offence of illegal searching of historical monuments and – for the first time – the application of administrative torts. The author discusses the new penal and administrative torts included in the Act on the Protection of Monuments and the Guardianship of Monuments in this article. It should be noted that there is an open question as to whether putting the new provisions into effect has strengthened the protection of historical monuments under the criminal law system.
