The aim of this essay analyses the historical and the modern status of the monastic garden of St. Adalbert Monastery in Staniątki (southern Poland) as well as provide a description of the most important threats of the area. The origins of the garden can be traced back to XIII and is a very interesting example of a utilitarian and decorative garden. It has a very long cultural, sacral and educational tradition and its significance is well known.

All this threats partly arise from the lack of funds for revalorization of the garden.
