Abstract

The current review article presents arguments that refute the results of Piotr Pikulski’s research on the history and architecture of the former royal palace in Łobzów, especially
during the reign of King John III Sobieski. Numerous methodological errors have been pointed out, as well as the absence of factual basis for the findings presented by the
author in his doctoral thesis and articles, whose correctness was to be confirmed by materials he had understood erroneously, such as the sources, findings made by other
scholars, and digital reconstructions. It has been demonstrated that Piotr Pikulski’s research was largely worthless and harmful, and that its results should not be allowed to enter the scholarly circulation.

Keywords:

Łobzów, John III Sobieski, inventory, royal palace, 17th c.
