The aforementioned issues were not studied in a detailed way until now. Written historical records, cartographic sources together with the toponymy as well as the typology of the studied structures that had developed since the 19th century were analysed. Special attention was paid to the stronghold relics in Wroclawice, Lelikow, Gory and Milicz. They make up a part of a bigger settlement complex located within the area of the former Milicz-Żmigrod district. The paper goes beyond the previous studies which aimed chiefly at recording archaeological sites (creating a complete catalogue) and focuses on a critical approach towards the issue of evolution in methods of documenting strongholds over time.

This class of ceramics was used in the Early Middle Ages (for about 100 years) by communities living in the area of southern Greater Poland and the north-eastern part of Lower Silesia. The previous ideas suggesting a close relationship between zoned ceramics and vessels produced in northern Bohemia are reconsidered, with the internal diversity of zoned ceramics being pointed out. We argue that inspiration in ceramics manufacturing came not only from the south (Bohemia), but also from the north (Pomerania) and the west (the middle Elbe region), and that there were also changes that appeared independently of these impulses in the ceramics production of small, native communities.

It was a brick building referring to the type of layout of princely buildings known in Silesia. Erection of the building in Milicz was connected with the creation of the Church castellany in this area. Visualisation of the oldest phase of the bishop’s palace in Milicz is part of the project: Regni custodiam et clavem – Santok and clavis regni Poloniae – Milicz as an example of two border towns, implemented by the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences and financed from the funds of the National Program for the Development of Humanities for the years 2011-2017. Virtual reconstructions were based on the analysis and interpretation of source materials, in accordance with the guidelines contained in the London Charter. The purpose of the visualization is to introduce residents of Milicz and tourists to history of the building and, in the long run, to tak...

What triggered the construction of three-dimensional visualizations was the will to protect cultural heritage – especially historical monuments which are in ruins and exposed to further destruction – as well as the need to disseminate information about such objects beyond a small group of specialists. Another catalyst for this was the need to verify the existing proposals for reconstructions or research hypotheses. The bishop's palace in Milicz (Poland) was probably built in the late thirteenth or early fourteenth century. It was a brick building whose layout was typical of ducal buildings known in Silesia. The erection of the building in Milicz was connected with the creation of the Church castellany in this area. The visualization of the oldest phase of the bishop's palace in Milicz is part of the project Regni custodiam et clavem – Santok and clavis regni Poloniae – Milicz as an example of two border towns, implemented by the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences and financed with the funds of the National Program for the Development of Humanities for the years 2011-2017 (number 11H 11 0184 80). Virtual reconstructions were based on the analysis and interpretation of source materials, in accordance with the guidelines contained in the London Charter. The purpose of the visualization is to present the history of the building to the residents of Milicz and tourists and, in the long run, to allow local authorities to take steps towards the preservation and revitalization of the bishop's palace.
