After the Second World War, the Jagiellonian University lost its autonomy and the state authorities destroyed its structures by separating the departments and creating new universities out of them. Independently, in 1946, the National Higher Teacher Training College in Krakow was established. In 1954, it received the right to run a master’s course. The quality of education in WSP was assessed negatively by the Jagiellonian University. In turn, the WSP authoritiesclaimed that their school provided better training for future teachers. At the beginning of the 1950s, some reservations were voiced as to the grounds for the existence of higher teacher training schools due to overlaps with the university curriculum. In 1956, the state authorities decided to close some of these colleges. WSP was to be merged with the Jagiellonian University. A meeting was organized at the Jagiellonian University in April 1956, where representatives of the Ministry of Higher Education, the Jagiellonian University and WSP discussed the merger. However, the meeting didn’t yield the expected results due to the firm objection on the part of WSP. The opportunity to strengthen the Jagiellonian University’s position by merging with WSP was ultimately lost.

The “Miraculum” company, which was one of the most famous cosmetics’ producers in the interwar period and in the People’s Republic of Poland, was established in 1924. Its founder, Leon Luster, a doctor from a Jewish family, was one of the pioneers of dermatology and cosmetology in Poland. From the medical practice in Krakow and writing in the women’s press, he moved on to the production of cosmetics. The company’s success was based on innovative products and extensive advertising. The entrepreneurship of his son-in-law Witold Böhm was also of great importance. During the German occupation, “Miraculum” was taken over by the Germans. Leon Luster initially stayed in Kraków and supported the work of the factory, in 1941 he decided to move to Grybów, where he was hiding due to his Jewish origin. In 1943, handed over to the Germans, he probably ended his life in the ghetto in Nowy Sącz.
