Abstracts

When on July 5th, 1945 after two months of hesitation in deciding on the national status of Szczecin the Polish administration took power over the city the number of its inhabitants was assessed at 1,500. The number was increasing, and after six months it reached the level of 17,000 new Polish citizens, but it took 25 years to get to the pre-war state, i.e. 270,000 inhabitants in 1938. After the war Szczecin was destroyed in 70%. The first school was built in the city centre, the most populous district of the city, at 12 Małkowskiego Street. Designed in 1955, finished in 1956, from September 1st, 1956 it served as Primary School no 34 (later the Wladyslaw Broniewski Primary School). Before the first Millennium school appeared in Szczecin eleven other schools had already been built. The all-Poland action to commemorate the thousand years of the Polish State was celebrated for the whole decade; part of that action was building a thousand schools. The celebration of the Polish State’s Millennium was supposed to overshadow the ecclesiastical celebration of the 1000th anniversary of the baptism of Poland in 966.
