The contribution would like to present a new research project focused on expansion of the knowledge, systematic documentation and definition of objective criteria for the evaluation of a specific group of technical monuments – historical water management constructions. The main goal is to develop a methodology of unambiguous identification, categorization and evaluation of historical water management objects in terms of historic preservation and renewal, based on an interdisciplinary approach. Attainment of the project’s goals through: - documentation and analysis of the water management objects‘ evolution in chosen study areas, using historical topographical maps, as well as archive sources, - comparative analysis of the historical objects‘ development in study areas, taking into consideration different conditions both natural and socio-economic The project’s outcome will be: - the methodology of identification, categorization and evaluation of historical water management objects.
