very nice, I'll try with one more Gdańsk image. Btw, maybe the engine
should be a bit more forgiving with missing diacritics, the search for
"Gdansk" leads to zero results :(
I liked something similar on the Hungarian website:
http://wikilovesmonuments.hu/search.php
When I understand correctly, the first option even tries to find
monuments nearby your geo-ip location, the second by address, the third
by coordinates an the forth by ID. Although my Hungarian is restricted
to 10-15 words, I could identify "my" monuments with this engine (even
without diacritics). Maybe the Hungarian algorithms would be interesting
for the Polish Project developers?

You understand absolutely well :)
Unfortunately our search engine is not enought accurate yet, because we
haven't got coordinates from the national heritage office, so we have given
coordinates to every monuments by a geolocation bot (thanks to grin [1]). It
still needs some manual correction.
The search engine has written by Tgr [2], and we gladly give you under free
licence.
(It is some SQL queries on a PostgreSQL database.)
