E-RIHS.pl is a Polish consortium for the study of historic objects using physicochemical methods, comprising 14 institutions from Gdańsk, Kraków, Poznań, Toruń, Warsaw and Wrocław. E-RIHS.pl has been on the Polish Roadmap for Research Infrastructures since January 2020. At this address, you can find a brochure published by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education with a description of all approved Infrastructures. E-RIHS.pl is a bottom-up initiative of its research centers. E-RIHS.pl declares its intention to participate and participates in the creation of the European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science: E-RIHS. E-RIHS.pl is an open structure – it invites you to cooperation and participation. E-RIHS.pl offers the community of conservators, art historians, museologists and archaeologists access to a unique research infrastructure and know-how .
