hello,
I was wondering...
Did we ever discuss towns/villages that used to be divided by the
border, but nowadays are not (anymore)?
I'm thinking about the Polish town Wielen on Notec river in
Wielkopolska which used to be divided into German Filehne (D) /
Polish Wielen (PL) until WWII, but nowadays is entirely in Poland.
There must be more of these town or areas in like Upper Silesia or
elsewhere.
Like: the state frontier was at your door step and isn't anymore.
(Could happen to Nicosia one day...)
Do we have info on Polish Wielen?
Regards
Bernd
