Criminal Threats to the National Heritage – an Analysis of the Events of 2018

Summary/Abstract: This article presents selected cases of cultural heritage crime in Poland during 2018 based on statistics prepared by the local police, the National Revenue Administration and the Border Police. It is worth noting that this is a year in which new systems for the reduction of threats to cultural goods have come into force. It should be considered when assessing the security status of cultural heritage in the future. Studies on various cases of crimes against heritage carried out in 2014-2018 allow one to indicate trends in perpetrators’ activities and identify the main threats to monuments at that time. The complementary presentation of collective information on the threat of cultural heritage is essential for the perspective of research, in order to develop a strategy for its protection.
