On 8 April Professor Pierre-Frédéric Weber, a historian from University of Szczecin, gave a lecture entitled "The 1989/1990 breakthrough in the Eastern Bloc countries from the perspective of Paris and Bonn".
The meeting was attended by 178 students and teachers.
It was the third of a series of lectures organised by the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe, which aim to present the circumstances of the historical breakthrough which led to the collapse of the communist system and the start of democratic changes in Central and Eastern Europe.
