St Mary’s Church had a great importance for Krakow and the City Council took care of the church’s maintenance and renovation. Starting from the 15th century, two administrators were appointed from among the city councillors for this task. Originally, they were called “edyls”, then “provisors” (from the Latin words provisor – the one who can foresee, and providere - to foresee, take care, supply).
