Bogumiła Haczewska
(4th May 1943 - 31st December 2017)
A worker of many years at the Numismatic Cabinet of the National Museum
in Krakow and then the Cabinet’s head before she retired, Bogumiła Haczewska
passed away on December 31, 2017.
She was born into the Trapp family in Krakow in 1943. Her father, Ferdynand,
came from Toruń; her mother, Krystyna Barańska, from Krakow. After the war
ended, she moved with her family to Oliwa, Gdańsk, in 1947. Her parents were
active as teachers and scout guides, and their lives were reflected in Bogumiła
Haczewska’s lifelong feeling of responsibility and her integrity and involvement
in social activism.
Upon finishing high school, she enrolled in the archaeology program at the
University of Toruń, but after the first year she transferred to Krakow, where she
continued her studies in archaeology at the Jagiellonian University. After attaining
her master’s degree - her thesis was titled “Early Medieval Land Roads in Pomerania
on the Basis of Archaeological Research” - she returned to Gdańsk, where she began
working in a library and then at the Stutthof Museum in Sztutów. Although she only
worked at this museum, which was formed on the grounds of the former German
concentration camp, for a short period of time (1966-1967), it was an experience
to which she oftentimes returned. Then, in 1968, she began working at the Castle
Museum in Malbork, in the Department of Sculpture, Painting, and Decorative Art,
where she was in charge of the numismatic collection, creating the foundations of the
Malbork Numismatic Cabinet, which exists to this day. She acquired coins for the
collection, which had to be reconstructed from scratch (the original collection had
been taken to Moscow in 1945), thanks, in part, to her good contact with collectors,
including Tadeusz Kalkowski (1899-1979).
Having received an offer to work at the Numismatic Cabinet of the National
Museum in Krakow, she returned to the city of her birth in 1971. It was here that she
