Two mansions are discussed here as examples, of a similar artistic class, designed in the interwar period by a Poznań-based architect, Stefan Cybichowski: the palace in Bieganowo (1914–16) – neglected, successively falling into decay and subjected to activities of its subsequent owners that were inappropriate from the point of view of preservation, and the mansion in Wódki (1922–23) – perfectly restored. The goal of the author is investigating the post-war history of these two facilities, taking into account the history of preservation activities, in order to define the causes of such a radically different state of preservation, considering the fact that both buildings are subject to the same legal preservation forms.
