The aim is to consider the diversity of museums and their activities on the basis of generally applicable regulations, in particular the Act of 21 November 1996 on museums (Journal of Laws of 2018, item 720 and 1669) and the Act of 28 February 2003 on bankruptcy (Journal of Laws of 2017, item 2344, as amended). The termination of the legal entity’s activity is often related to the lack of funds for further operations (i.e., bankruptcy). Therefore, the article analyzes applicable legal provisions regarding the liquidation and bankruptcy of museums in the creative sector enterprises. The entirety of the analysis is influenced by the conclusions de lege ferenda and de lege lata, which were formulated on the basis of the author’s own observations. }, doi = {10.4467/2450050XSNR.19.005.10806}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/saaclr/article/sposoby-prawne-zakonczenia-dzialalnosci-muzeum} }
