At present, nearly 600 railway stations serve passengers in Poland. Many of them are historical and are in poor condition due to long-term negligence. However, we have been witness to a change in this situation over the last few years. PKP S.A. is attempting to undertake actions aimed at protecting elements of cultural and sentimental value related to railways. By presenting two examples of the revival of historical railway stations which used to belong to one management, the article attempts to give an insight into the adaptation of historical sites connected with ongoing functional, technological and civilization changes, yet assuming respect for tradition.
