Abstract

The 2014 and 2015 conservation program of the Polish–Egyptian Conservation Mission to Marina el-Alamein, a part from current maintenance, covered mainly conservation activities within the central square of the town and in selected rooms of two complexes of public baths: a Hellenistic establishment situated north of the square and a Roman one to the south of it. Conservation of selected items in the storerooms, paintings in particular, was also included.
