Most monuments conservators claim to show society how to interpret a particular heritage, such as what should be in their collective memory (worth preservation) and how the specific heritage should be presented. The lack of social obedience is explained by insufficient social education. The intensification of this knowledge obviously takes into account education in the spirit of “sustainable development”. However, it is assumed in advance that heritage is of utmost importance here and everything else should be subordinated to it, adjusted to this “the only right idea” which has been elaborated for years. If, nevertheless, any restoration project breaks out from the imposed hierarchy and its effects become worthy or more popular, it is very often accused of “lacking sensitivity, having a superficial perception, or representing ‘Disneylandisation’, or even a cheap showiness”. The author intends to present reasons why the Underground Market Museum in Krakow should or should not be created.
