Obvious error

[edit]

On 23 May 1945, Olsztyn became again part of Poland under border changes promulgated at the Potsdam Conference.

This can't be true because Potsdam was in August only! --Tino Cannst (talk) 19:24, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Volunteer Marek: Please tell why correcting the FALSE information is wrong. Potsdam was in August and could not POSSIBLY legitimize transfer in May '45. --Tino Cannst (talk) 19:03, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Old Prussian name

[edit]

The city name Alnāsteini is not actually attested in authentic historical sources, although the river name Alna is, so please either add an asterisk (to indicate that it is a reconstruction) or just remove it. See also the note I left on Wiktionary[1], as well as the prior deletion log over there. Thank you. 70.172.194.25 (talk) 21:35, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Soviets and Psychiatric Hospital

[edit]

The psychiatric hospital at Kortau/Kortowo was, between 1941-5, operating largely as a Wehrmacht hospital (there is still a pill-box bunker in front of the site) with over 1,300 beds for soldiers. It later became the farming and fisheries college, eventually becoming the University of Warmia and Mazury: Provincial Mental Sanatorium Kortau - Wikipedia (37.31.153.38 (talk) 18:19, 6 April 2025 (UTC))[reply]
