Abstract

The thesis contain an overview of T. Wroblewski's activities in the Commission for management of archives and acts established in 1919 by the Lithuanian State Council. At that time he started to work fruitfully in the fields of archives and museums as an organizer. In autumn 1918 T. Wróblewski together with members of the Lithuanian State Council J. Basanavičius and M. Biržiška were members of a commission formed by the Ministry of Education to take over museums, archives and libraries from the German administration. It is worthwhile mentioning that T. Wróblewski considered that archives of various origin situated in Lithuania belong to the Lithuanian state. He proved it by his work in the above commission. At the beginning of 1919 under the regime of soviet government headed by V. Kapsukas, T. Wróblewski continued his work in the field of protection of movable cultural heritage. He participated in the activities of Commission of Archeology, was setting up Lithuanian Central archive of archeology accumulating in it remaining archives scattered here and there. Direct involvement of T. Wróblewski in organizational and practical activities relating to the protection of heritage was terminated in 1919 by the Polish administration which substituted the Soviets.
