Prof. Waldemar Czachur and Dr. Gregor Feindt are the authors of a new Polish-German publication about Krzyżowa, which has just been published by the publishing Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung (bpb).

The village of Krzyżowa in Lower Silesia has German history, Polish present, and European horizon. With the move of the border after the end of World War II, the German village Kreisau became the Polish one. Later the place was rediscovered as a place of German resistance to National Socialism. Germans and Poles have together started the research on the ideas of the Kreisau Circle. Therefore Krzyżowa was the right place to organize the Reconciliation Mass in 1989. Waldemar Czachur and Gregor Feindt follow the growing importance of Krzyżowa for Polish-German relations and show the history of the establishment of the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe.

Prof. Waldemar Czachur is a chairman of Foundation Council and a member of the Committee for Memorial Sites and European Academy and Dr. Gregor Feindt is a member of the Committee for Memorial Sites and European Academy.
