Since 1930, the building has belonged to the Płock Scientific Society, which originally stored its museum collections here before transferring them to the Mazovian Museum. Since 1976, it has been the seat of the Zieliński Library of the Płock Scientific Society.
The Providence House
A Neoclassical building erected between 1828 and 1832 to a design by Warsaw architect Jakub Kubicki. The name of the building comes from the bas-relief placed in the tympanum of the façade, depicting the “Eye of Providence.”A Neoclassical building erected between 1828 and 1832 to a design by Warsaw architect Jakub Kubicki.

How it working
To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.
STEP 1
You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.
STEP 2
After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.
STEP 3
The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!
STEP 4
Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links

Monuments in cities remind us of the history of places and people, and allude to important events. They are also works of art. Bronze, metal, wood, or concrete transformed into the form of a monumental obelisk attract attention. We enjoy sitting by them, taking photos, and making appointments.
Project partners
Implementing the "Discover history" project in each city requires the involvement of many people: programmers, graphic designers, writers, actors, sound engineers, and coordinators. It is thanks to them that this project came to life.
Our ambition is to continually expand its reach. Therefore, we thank our current partners and invite additional cities, institutions, companies, and individuals to collaborate!
