On 25 June, we hosted Thomas Oppermann, Vice President of the German Bundestag, together with the Consul General of Germany (and a member of the Council of the Krzyżowa Foundation) - Hans Jőrg Neumann.
Our guests, accompanied by the Foundation's Managing Director, Dr. Robert Żurek, as well as the Director for Organisation and Development, Aleksandra Królak-Wąsowicz, visited the palace, the exhibition "Courage and Reconciliation" and the House on the Hill.
The meeting was an opportunity to present the history of this important place for Polish-German relations to the President of the Bundestag. The time spent in Krzyżowa also includes conversations about the Foundation's mission, Polish-German relations, European issues, as well as the difficult situation of NGOs in the era of pandemics and the challenges facing international meeting places.
Thomas Oppermann, Vice-President of the Bundestag, visited Krzyżowa as part of his journey and series of meetings in Lower Silesia and the Opole region.
