How much does a project cost?
Nearly two years have passed since the signing of the agreement for co-financing of the implementation of the “Restoration and protection of the symbol of the Polish cultural heritage – the Museum of King Jan III’s Palace at Wilanów” project. In March 2017, as part of Measure 8.1 Protection of cultural heritage and development of cultural resources – Priority Axis VIII Protection of cultural heritage and development of cultural resources of the Operational Programme Infrastructure and Environment 2014–2020, the Museum signed a document assuming co-financing consisting of two parts: the amount of PLN 8,874,387.98 from EU funds (80% of eligible costs) and PLN 2,218,596.99 from national funds, which constituted 20% of eligible costs. The originally planned total cost of the project was: PLN 14,516,446.03 gross, but as a result of conducted tender procedures and high price volatility, it changed. In December 2018 the Museum signed annex no. 5 with the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. The total costs of the project after the signed annex are as follows: PLN 17,783,784.44 gross (eligible costs amount to PLN 13,651,607.12, ineligible costs PLN 4,132,177.32), of which PLN 10,921,285.69 are EU funds and PLN 2,730,321.43 come from domestic funds. The project implementation period, planned until the end of 2019, remains unchanged, and some of the tasks are now in their final stages.
