News from Poland



On 18th of December 2009 we took part in the Christmas meeting organized by the Socio - Cultural German Association in Wrocław (Niemieckie Towarzystwo Kulturalno - Społeczne we Wrocławiu).

It was a unique opportunity to get to know the German Christmas tradition.


Apart from the German minority members there were other guests: Mr. Bernhard Brasack - General Consul of German Republic in Wrocław, Mr. Dariusz Tokarz - the representant from the Marshal's Office responsible for national and etnic minorities and Mrs. Dorota Kozak-Rybska - the representant from the City Hall.


The meeting was host by Mrs. Renate Zajaczkowska beeing at the same time the president of the Socio - Cultural German Association in Wrocław.


During the meeting we could admire musicians playing and choir singing. We also sang German and Polish Carols, tasted gingerbread cookies and watched a Christmas play "Jasełka" done by the youth group of German minority members.

We spent there a great time and met a wonderful people.
