This is a church at Schweidnitz near Breslau, the new Polish names are now Svidnice and Wroclav. After the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, the town became part of Poland according to the post-war Potsdam Conference in 1945. The German population who had not fled during the war were subsequently expelled to Germany and replaced with Poles. They changed the historical names to Polish and have so become unrecognizable as being of German origin, but the craftsmanship which the original natives have left there are now rich sources of Polish tourist trade, same as in the Czech Republic.
An Old Wooden Church In Poland. . .really something to see. This church is so beautiful, one has to wonder how you could possibly concentrate on the service? This church had been built by Germans since this part of Poland had been German until WW II, when the Oder/Neisse line had been drawn. Details in this church are absolutely amazing. Take a good look. Use the pointers at the bottom of the picture to view, up and down and the + sign to zoom in Its incredible. Move your cursor around to see it all.
