The Association of Polish Architects (Polish: Stowarzyszenie Architektów Polskich, SARP) is a Polish professional architecture organisation. Since 1948 it has been a member of the International Union of Architects (UIA) and the International Federation of Landscape Architects (IFLA).[1] It also acts as a publishing institution of architectural journals, books and magazines. Since 1995, it has held status of a copyright collective.

The organisation's headquarters are located at the Konstanty Zamoyski Palace in Warsaw, but it also has 25 local branches across Poland, amongst them in Katowice, Kraków, Wrocław, Poznań and Opole.[2]

History

[edit | edit source]

The Association of Polish Architects was established in 1934, but traces its history to earlier institutions, such as the Krakow Technological Association (1877) and the Polish Architects' Delegation (1908).[1][3] It is a merger of the Polish Architects Association, established in Warsaw in 1926, and the Union of Polish Architects' Associations, established in Poznań in 1929.[1]
