This article presents the photogrammetric works carried out during the architectural inventory of the Royal Chapel in the Main Town of Gdansk (Poland). The facility has the status of a monument of architecture and since decades it is covered by geodetic monitoring, realized with the participation of the Department of Geodesy of Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering of Gdańsk University of Technology . For several years, the works involve students of "geodesy and cartography" major and supervision over the measurements was taken by Scientific Hevelius Circle from Gdańsk University of Technology. Within the complementation of the geodetic measurements made in 2013-2014, the laser scanning of virtually entire facility was performed and the results of studies became the source material for the diploma thesis and student group projects. The present example shows the positive aspects of cooperation between the monuments conservator and university and student scientific circle. In addition to the possibility to use modern surveying technologies, group project participants learn about the issues of inventory of facilities characterized by significant historical values and they gain additional knowledge concerning the fields related to geodesy (architecture and construction engineering) and substantially different from the engineering industry (history and art). Not without significance is the fact that the works realized within the framework of student tasks served the real protection of the monument and they are a source for further archaeological and architectural analyses.
