The current „m.” [Anna F.-L. (59) e.g. conservator, Małgorzata M. (62) e.g. employment and payroll specialist, Zofia K. (55) e.g. accountant] worked closely with Krzysztof K. (PZPR, SLD) as his devoted employees. Krzysztof K. questioned, contrary to the facts, the origin of museum exhibits worth millions of zlotys from the Z. collection. He took over the m. g. house for his private agritourism. He organized widely criticized hunting events with the participation of, for example, former „president” Bronisław K. (PO).
In 2015, Krzysztof K. as d. (a warm pensioner of Art Nouveau glass collector) was replaced by Anna F.-L., appointed by Sławomir S. (PSL), who claimed to be the so-called marshal of the L. voivodeship. In 2020, for the next 5-year term, he recommended Anna F.-L., claiming to be the so-called marshal of the L. voivodeship Jarosław S. (PiS). Claiming to be the so-called mini. of cu. Piotr G. (PiS) agreed to the so-called the appointment without a competition and he was convinced, for example, by the «Catholic Association "Civitas Christiana"».
The current „m.” continues the entire "line" adopted by Krzysztof K. and guards his i. Why? If you don't know what the problem is...
On June 22, 2018, a special event was organized together with the "Polish Hunting Association", which was met with numerous voices of protest. On the same day, Anna F.-L. was honored by Piotr G. with the "Gloria Artis" medal. The same Piotr G. appointed Anna F.-L. for the years 2021-2024 as a member of the "council for museums and places". Then, in a "secret ballot", Anna F.-L. was "chosen" for the so-called chairman of the board.
The so-called the board of the L. voivodeship dismissed Anna F.-L. from the position of director. Previously, twice the so-called marshal of the L. voivodeship Jarosław S. (PiS) addressed the so-called minister of c. Piotr G. (PiS) to express his opinion on the dismissal of Anna F.-L. The so-called writings marshal's questions remained unanswered. List of charges against Anna F.-L. is long, the main ones concerned the renovation for PLN 40 million, which practically stopped, and the inappropriate spending of funds on the so-called law firm.
On March 1, 2023, Jerzy D., a disability specialist, became the acting director without competition, and his deputy was Sławomir G., specializing in socialist realism, a long-time collaborator of Krzysztof K. and Anna F.-L.
Jerzy D. will soon be replaced by Bożena C., an official from the so-called marshal's office, the resolution on her appointment was passed without competition on August 16, 2023 by the so-called board of the L. voivodeship.

Changdeokgung Palace was built between 1405 and 1412 during the reign of King Taejong, the third king of the Joseon dynasty, as the second royal palace after Gyeongbokgung (the main palace of the dynasty), currently the National Palace Museum of Korea. In 1592, during the Japanese invasion of Korea (Imjin War), it was burned down. The reconstruction of the palace began only in 1609 during the reign of King Seonjo, and was completed during the reign of his successor, King Gwanghaegun. Later, Changdeokgung was destroyed and rebuilt several times, especially in the 18th century. In 1910, after the annexation of Korea by Japan, the palace was taken over by the Japanese authorities and part of it was destroyed. During the Japanese occupation (1910–1945), many palace buildings were demolished or transformed. After Korea regained independence, Changdeokgung underwent numerous restoration works.
Changdeokgung Palace was built in the traditional Korean architectural style that is characteristic of the Joseon Dynasty period (1392–1897). This style of architecture emphasizes harmony with the surrounding nature and introduces elements of Confucianism, which played a key role in Korean society and culture during this period. These are the main features of the style in which Changdeokgung was built:
1. Harmony with the surroundings - Changdeokgung was built in a way that aimed to integrate the building with the natural landscape, in accordance with the principles of geomancy (feng shui). The palace did not disturb the natural terrain, which is visible in its asymmetric layout. The palace area was incorporated into hills and valleys, preserving the natural shape of the land.
2. Asymmetrical layout - unlike the symmetrical palaces in China or Japan, Changdeokgung has a more organic, asymmetrical layout due to its harmony with the surrounding nature. The buildings are arranged in accordance with the natural terrain, which gives a sense of spaciousness and naturalness.
3. Simple yet elegant architecture - Changdeokgung's architecture is characterized by simplicity and minimalism, which is in line with Confucian values. Wooden structures, tiled roofs and decorative details are carefully designed to be aesthetically pleasing but not overdone. The roofs of the buildings have characteristic, slightly bent ends, which is typical of traditional buildings in Korea.
4. The beauty of details - the palace is richly decorated with details, such as painted wooden beams (so-called dancheong), which are covered with colorful geometric and floral patterns. Dancheong has both a decorative and protective function, protecting the wood from harmful weather conditions.
5. Huwon Garden (Secret Garden) - also known as the Complex Garden, is an integral part of the palace complex and a perfect example of striving for harmony with nature. The garden includes picturesque ponds, pavilions, pagodas and bridges that have been designed to be fully integrated with the natural landscape.
6. Building material - the primary material used for construction is wood, and the buildings have traditional roofs covered with clay tiles. Many of the palace's buildings, including the most important halls, are built of wooden frames and have open spaces, which allows for natural ventilation of the rooms.
Changdeokgung Palace consists of many buildings with different functions that played key roles in the life of the royal court of the Joseon Dynasty. These are the main buildings of Changdeokgung Palace:
1. Injeongjeon (Throne Room)
2. Seonjeongjeon (Board Hall)
3. Huijeongdang (King's Personal Hall)
4. Daejojeon (Queen's Chamber)
5. Nakseonjae (King Heonjong's private residence built in the 19th century)
7. Donhwamun (Main Gate)
8. Juhamnu (Royal Library Pavilion)
Changdeokgung Palace does not have a permanent museum collection, it is mainly a royal residence and a historical monument. Nevertheless, there are valuable monuments, artifacts and collections related to Korean history and the Joseon dynasty, which can be seen as part of temporary exhibitions or special events.
Here are some of the resources and collections related to Changdeokgung:
1. Architectural monuments and decorations
- Dancheong: The colorful paintings on the wooden palace structures are some of the most beautiful examples of traditional decoration in Korean architecture. These decorations, which are an important element of cultural heritage, decorate the beams, ceilings and roofs of the palace buildings.
- Pavilions and Bridges: Located in the palace gardens (Huwon), pavilions such as Buyongjeong, Juhamnu, and stone bridges are valuable examples of Korean architecture and are considered national heritage.
2. Collections related to the Joseon dynasty
- Royal clothing (hanbok): Traditional royal clothing, including the ceremonial robes of the king, queen and members of the royal family.
- Royal furniture: Original wooden furniture used by rulers, such as desks, chairs, beds and other elements of palace interior design.
