The role and scope of architectural and conservation research procedures in the process of restoring the splendour of an architectural monument created after 1945 on the example of the Suburban Railway Station in Gdynia

Architectural and conservation research procedures play a pivotal role in restoring the original splendour of post-1945 monuments, as demonstrated by the case study of Gdynia's Suburban Railway Station. The study highlights that meticulous documentation, material analysis, and historical context reconstruction are essential for effective restoration, ensuring both structural integrity and aesthetic authenticity. By employing advanced techniques such as non-destructive testing and digital modeling, researchers can accurately assess degradation patterns and guide conservation interventions. This approach not only preserves the architectural heritage but also informs future preservation strategies for similar structures.
