Braniewo at the Frontier www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW Braniewo At the Frontier 09 / 2019 – Jacek Bartosiak 8th August 2019 - in the early hours of the morning, I stood in Braniewo at ul. Zielona 25, looking at ex-German residential building typical of the region - Warmia - with a beautiful old orchard at the back of the house. Braniewo, Zielona Street (photo: Jacek Bartosiak) Most of the trees in the orchard undoubtedly remembered the pre-war city of Braunsberg. On this day, it had the look of a typical frontier town, quite sleepy, a place where life went slowly for the most part. Added to this the unmerciful heat despite the rain that had been announced. 1 www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW According to historical records, Braniewo is the oldest city of Warmia and its first capital - located on the Pasłęka River (once navigable) near the mouth of the Vistula Lagoon, it currently numbers 17,000 inhabitants. Formerly it was an important river port, a fairly significant sea port and a vibrant Hanseatic city. Between the years 1466 and 1772, the city was part of the Kingdom of Poland. It returned to Poland after the Yalta-Potsdam agreements of 1945. I’d intended to see the Vistula Lagoon that day, through which goods came and went via the Pasłęka River. This was at the time when the Hanseatic League ruled the Batlic Sea and Braniewo was known to the world as Brunsberg. The Hanseatic League of that time was an association of Northern European merchant cities from the medieval ages to the early modern era. The cities belonging to the union supported their mutual trade and monetary policy, in effect almost monopolising strategic flows (i.e. trade, and the movement of capital and people) in the Baltic, which translated into the huge political power of the Hanse. Currently, near the mouth of the Pasłęka to the Vistula Lagoon, the Polish-Russian border separating Poland from the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, which cut the former German province of East Prussia into the Polish and Russian parts. Polish-Russian border near Braniewo towards the Vistula Lagoon (photo: Jacek Bartosiak) 2 www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW Today - in the era of great power competition in Eurasia and Russia’s offensive policy towards the Baltic-Black Sea Bridge, aimed at weakening NATO and pushing US out of Europe - Kaliningrad enclave has become a serious strategic challenge for Poland, because it creates a so-called ‘A2/AD-bastion’. To put it succinctly, weapons systems in the enclave threaten NATO sea, air and land communication lines to the Baltic States, including the freedom of communication through the Suwałki Corridor which connects Poland and Lithuania, and which is thus squeezed between Russia and its ally Belarus. The Suwałki Corridor has become a symbol of new times on NATO’s Eastern Flank because it is an important focus of the next generation warfare (hybrid warfare) between Russia and NATO. We are still dealing with the fallout from a failure to resolve the issue of Kaliningrad enclave after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and this represents a serious planning problem for any operations of the Polish and allied forces in the event of a war with Russia over the Baltic states. It is also a problem now, because its very existence is a problem related to the so-called ‘strategic signaling’ and affects the dislocation of the Polish Armed Forces and our allies. Without the existence of the enclave, Poland would not border with Russia, which would completely change our strategic calculations towards the Baltic States and our military dislocations in the region. On that August morning, the inhabitants of Braniewo with whom I spoke did not seem to be aware of what their city’s location means, 10 km from the Russian border and 63 km from the city of Kaliningrad. The 9th Armoured Cavalry Brigade “King Stefan Batory” is stationed in Braniewo at ul. Sikorskiego 41, on the road leading to Elbląg and Frombork. Its soldiers were the first to serve in the Polish contingent in the Riga suburb of Ādaži, 23 km from Kircholm, where in 1605 Field Hetman of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Jan Karol Chodkiewicz, defeated the Swedish army, protecting the strategic line of defence of the Commonwealth on the Daugava River from penetration. The Commonwealth also secured a Livonian buffer against Russian land troops, aiming to break through to the Baltic Sea, while fighting Swedish landings from the sea on which our northern neighbours ruled at that time. Today, Polish tankers from the contingent in Ādaži are the first line of defence on the main axis of a potential Russian attack crossing the three Baltic states towards Riga through the southern part of Estonia. Braniewo has been a witness to frequent geopolitical changes. In the times of the communist Poland, according to the inhabitants of the border town, the mechanized Soviet columns on their way to 3 www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW Czechoslovakia in 1968 (also in August) moved down the streets in numbers. Who would have thought 50 years ago that in half a century Polish soldiers from the Braniewo unit would be part of the Polish power projection to post-Soviet Latvia (which in the meantime has become a NATO member) in order to deter any offensive Russian action! The history is constantly rolling on the Baltic-Black Sea Bridge. In the life of one man, things that can fundamentally change his political and economic environment and thus obviously his personal life can happen several times. Geopolitical changes are sometimes so fast that we have learned to get used to them quickly in this region of the world. After all, the geopolitical system from before - let's say - 40 years seems pure abstraction to us! That morning I talked with an elderly man who told me that in the house located on the bend of Zielona Street, which picturesquely turned towards military barracks, a music professor lived before the war, who commuted to work by train every day to Königsberg, as Kaliningrad was called in German times, which was not a long journey between two cities after all located in one German state in the province of Ostpreußen. Railway towards the formerly German Königsberg, currently Russian Kaliningrad; railway station in Braniewo (photo: Jacek Bartosiak) 4 www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW The railway still goes from Braniewo to the former Königsberg, now Kaliningrad, and the city has a beautiful, though neglected, German station. Recently, transit trains from China have begun to pass through Braniewo station as part of the Chinese Belt and Road initiative, or - if you prefer - the New Silk Road, towards Olsztyn and further into Poland, probably further to Germany and Western Europe. Slowly building a system of land connectivity between East Asia and Europe and a new trading system based on it. Braniewo, railway station (photo: Jacek Bartosiak) Together with the area of the present Kaliningrad enclave, Warmia and Mazury were once called the Prussian Lakeland. They are stretched between the Vistula and the Nemunas and separate from the Polish hinterland the former Prussian coast based on the Pregoła, the Pasłęka and the Nemunas. Both the Pregoła and the Nemunas flowed into the Baltic Sea with deltas where they are today on the Vistula Spit and the Curonian Spit, which arose when the sea invaded the course of both rivers and on the bottom of the shallow Baltic coast, the sand settled forming the spits. 5 www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW Vistula Lagoon (photo: Jacek Bartosiak) The parts of the sea cut off in this way are shallow (4 metres in the Vistula, 15 metres in the Curonian) but home to fish and breaks in the spits at Baltiysk and Klaipeda made it possible for the lagoons to communicate with the open sea. This is the source of Warsaw’s current pressure to build a channel for Polish freight communication to be able to access the Baltic Sea (from the Vistula Lagoon) without Russian mediation. However, the Prussian coast was not conducive to the development of shipping in the modern era, because the lagoons turned out to be too shallow for larger commercial vessels. For this reason, the ports, once significant - Konigsberg, Elbląg, Braniewo (Brunsberg) and Klaipeda lost their commercial significance when sea-going vessels with the development of shipbuilding technologies became more substantial and more submerged. With the opening up of the Atlantic Ocean and great geographical explorations, cities such as Brunsberg have deteriorated all the more. In the case of Braniewo, i.e. the former Brunsberg, this led to a real decline of the importance of the once rich and influential Warmian city. 6 www.strategyandfuture.org NOW YOU KNOW Pasłeka river estuary to the Vistula Lagoon (photo: Jacek Bartosiak) I am not sure if the resident of the city whom I spoke to in the morning in August also realised that his city was the first line of defence in the event of war with Russia. The 9th Armored Cavalry Brigade is stationed too close to the border and would be subjected to the the Russian long range artillery fires, so the troops in the event of an alarm would have to leave Braniewo barracks and deploy to a location further in the direction of Elbląg through the Elbląg Plateau, probably taking defensive positions on the Elbląg Canal between Elbląg and Olsztyn. The garrison in Braniewo would be a Russian target from the first minutes of the war. The Pasłęka River in Braniewo is at most a tactical barrier. The defence of Polish troops in this region cannot be organized based on this river.

Those reports constitute a highly valuable and authentic source for researchers investigating history of the Catholic church. The frequency of reporting duties was determined by the distance separating a given diocese from Rome. Polish bishops visited the Apostolic See (visitatio liminum) and reported on the state of their congregation (relatio status1) to the Roman Congregation every four years. Not all members of the clergy observed those duties promptly, but the surviving reports deliver a detailed account of dynamic changes taking place in the diocese over the centuries. The focus of this article is on the diocese of Warmia (Ermland). Similarly to other Polish congregations, Warmia’s bishops visited the Holy See every four years to give an account of the state of their dioceses. The reports submitted in the 17th and the 18th century according to the norms imposed by Pope Sixtus V have been discussed by Professor Alojzy Szorc2 . His ac­ counts indicate that the first written statement had been delivered by Bish­ op Piotr Tylicki in 1604, and more than 20 reports documenting the state of affairs in Warmia’s dioceses have survived to this date.

    The Global and the Local: The History of Science and the Cultural Integration of Europe. nd Proceedings of the 2 ICESHS (Cracow, Poland, September 6–9, 2006) / Ed. by M. Kokowski. Marian Biskup * Polish research on the life and wide-ranging activity of Nicholas Copernicus ** FOR MANY YEARS NOW ATTENTION has been paid in the Polish science to the need to show the whole of life and activity of Nicholas Copernicus. It leads to the better understanding of his scientific workshop and the conditions he worked in. Therefore, first a detailed index of all the source documents was published in 1973, in Regesta Copernicana, in both Polish and English version. It included 520 the then known source documents, from the years 1448–1550, both printed as well as sourced from the Swedish, Italian, German and Polish archives and libraries.1 This publication allowed to show the full life of Copernicus and his wide interests and activities. It also made it possible to show his attitude towards the issues of public life in Royal Prussia — since 1454 an autonomous part of the Polish Kingdom — and in bishop’s Warmia, after releasing from the rule of the Teutonic Order. Nicholas Copernicus lived in Royal Prussia since his birth in 1473 and — excluding a few years devoted to studies abroad — he spent his entire life there, until his death in 1543. He was born in Toruń, a bilingual city (German and Polish) which, since 1454, was under the rule of the Polish king. There he adopted the lifestyle and customs of rich bourgeoisie, as well as its mentality, also the political one.

The development of peripheral areas: The case of West Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland Martin KEBZA a * Abstract The process of peripheralisation of outlying areas is discussed in this article using a case study of West Pomeranian (Zachodniopomorskie) Voivodeship in Poland. Emphasis is placed on the relationship between these peripheral areas and metropolitan core areas. Scalar and vector data on selected indicators in the years 2005 and 2015 for gminas (communes, territorial units NUTS 5) are presented. The values for both years were observed as well as the change between them. A composite indicator based on the calculated data was developed, and it served as the basis for categorisation of metropolitan, 'semi-peripheral' and peripheral areas, which were further defined on the basis of their intrinsic properties and location in the region. The development of such peripheral areas is assessed more generally in the conclusions.

    Witold Gieszczyński Human Migration on the Territory of the Former East Prussia after the Second World War Echa Przeszłości 12, 189-200 2011 ECHA PRZESZŁOŚCI XII, 2011 ISSN 1509-9873 Witold Gieszczyński HUMAN MIGRATION ON THE TERRITORY OF THE FORMER EAST PRUSSIA AFTER THE SECOND WORLD WAR Following the ratification of treaties to partition Poland dated 5 August 1772, the Royal Prussia with Warmia (Germ. Ermland), excluding Gdańsk and Toruń, and the Noteć District (Germ. Netzedistrikt) with Bydgoszcz were annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia1. Under a decree of 31 January 1773, the kingdom of Frederic II was expanded to include “West Prussia” (Germ. Westpreussen) as well as an administrative unit referred to as the “East Prussia province” (Germ. Provinz Ostpreussen), comprising Warmia, a region in pre-partition Poland, and Royal Prussia, a fiefdom of the Crown of Poland in 1525-16572. Beginning with the unification of Germany in 1871, East Prussia became a part of the Reich. In 1829, both provinces were formally united into a single “province of Prussia”, but the former division into two provinces of “West Prussia” and “East Prussia” was restored already in 18783. After the World War I, in an attempt to resolve the Polish-Ger­ man dispute over the territories in Warmia, Mazury and Powiśle, the Trea­ ty of Versailles of 28 June 1919 ordered a poll in Prussia.

  • ELBLĄG. Values, Potential, Benefits
    ELBLĄG. Values, potential, benefits Elbląg, a city of some 120,000 inhabitants, located in the northern part of Poland, is one of the oldest Polish cities that last year celebrated its 780th anniversary of foundation. Today's Elbląg is certainly a very interesting and modern city that is well worth visiting due to its many advantages: rich history, interesting tourist routes, proximity to many cultural attractions, excellent transport links and good conditions for investing and doing business. It is a rapidly developing city and a modern industrial, academic and cultural center. It is also a great place to live and a great base for tourists. Great transport route The city of Elbląg, situated on the crossings of land and water routes, is distinguished by its advantageous communication system. It is an important international transport hub on the East-West route, connecting part of the Russian Federation (Kaliningrad District) with Poland and Western Europe (route S22 connecting Berlin with Kaliningrad and further to Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Finland). The S7 expressway that connects cities such as: Gdańsk, Warsaw, Krakow and Budapest, also runs through Elbląg. In the region there are also two international airports: the Gdańsk-Rębiechowo airport about 60 km from Elbląg and about 100 km away - Olsztyn-Szymany airport. City open to the sea The maritime traditions of Elbląg reach into the farthest part of the city. Today, the reactivated port of Elbląg plays an important role in the city development. Elbląg is the only Seaport in the north-east of Poland, operating cargo, tourist and passenger shipping. The proximity of the ports in Gdańsk, Gdynia, Kaliningrad and the Scandinavian countries creates opportunities for comprehensive cooperation in the Baltic Sea region.
