Geographical and chronological knowledge in teaching the history of architecture

The subject of this article is the analysis of examination results from the course, the History of Polish Architecture. These Bachelor studies present the political, economic and cultural issues of medieval and early modern architecture, and their changes over time. Basic knowledge of the administrative division and historical regions is needed for a proper understanding of the regional diversity of cultural heritage monuments in Poland. One of the tasks of the final test is to identify from pictures ten historic buildings and to provide the name, function, time of creation, architectural style, author, city and region of the pictures. Analysis of the answers shows that many students, despite their good knowledge of architecture, have problems with the correct location of not only small- and medium-sized cities, but also the largest cities and the capital. Another issue discussed in this article is the problem of students recognising architectural styles and the time of their occurrence in various regions.
