87 years ago, on 1 September 1939, N**i Germany invaded Poland, beginning the Second World War.

Poland was the first country to resist German aggression militarily. Despite overwhelming forces and, from 17 September, the Soviet invasion from the east, the Polish state did not surrender. Its authorities continued the struggle in exile, while Polish soldiers fought alongside the Allies on many fronts of the war.

The German occupation of Poland brought terror, mass executions, forced labour and the systematic destruction of Polish society. It was also on occupied Polish soil that N**i Germany established the principal extermination centres in which it carried out the Holocaust.

Today, 🇵🇱 remember the millions of victims of the Second World War and honour all those who resisted aggression and fought for freedom.

On 29 August, we commemorate the 82nd anniversary of the departure of the last transport from Radegast Station to Auschwitz-Birkenau, which marked the final liquidation of the Litzmannstadt Ghetto in German-occupied Łódź.

Before the Second World War, Łódź was home to one of the largest and most active Jewish communities in 🇵🇱. Jews constituted approximately one-third of the city’s population and were an integral part of its social, cultural and economic life.

In 1940, N**i Germany established the Litzmannstadt Ghetto in the occupied city. It became the second-largest Jewish ghetto in German-occupied Europe, after the Warsaw Ghetto. More than 200,000 Jews passed through it during its existence. The overwhelming majority were murdered - many at the German N**i extermination camp Kulmhof (Chełmno) and, during the final liquidation of the ghetto, at Auschwitz-Birkenau.

In August 1944, the Germans deported the remaining inhabitants of the ghetto to Auschwitz-Birkenau. The last transport left Radegast Station on 29 August. Among those deported that day was Chaim Rumkowski, the Eldest of the Jews of the Litzmannstadt Ghetto, together with his family.

Only a small fraction of those who passed through the ghetto survived the Holocaust. Among its victims were tens of thousands of people who before the war had been citizens and residents of Łódź.

Today, the former Radegast Station is a memorial site. Twenty years ago, a monument was erected there to commemorate those whose final journey began at this railway station.

The anniversary commemorations in Łódź are organised by the Marek Edelman Dialogue Center in Łódź (Centrum Dialogu im. Marka Edelmana w Łodzi), which works to preserve the memory of the city’s Jewish community and its heritage.

On this anniversary, we honour the memory of the Jewish community of Łódź and all the victims of the Litzmannstadt Ghetto.

May their memory be a blessing🕯

This year marks 35 years of the Weimar Triangle 🇵🇱 🇫🇷 🇩🇪

On 28 August 1991, Polish Foreign Minister Krzysztof Skubiszewski met his French and German counterparts, Roland Dumas and Hans-Dietrich Genscher, in Weimar. Their meeting established a new framework for cooperation between Poland, France and Germany at a historic moment when Europe was overcoming the divisions of the Cold War.

The Weimar Triangle contributed to bringing our countries and societies closer together and accompanied Poland on its path towards membership in NATO and the European Union. Over the following decades, it developed into an important platform for political dialogue and cooperation.

Thirty-five years later, the idea behind the Weimar Triangle remains highly relevant. Poland, France and Germany share responsibility for strengthening European security, supporting European unity and building a Europe capable of responding effectively to the challenges of the future.

The anniversary is not only an opportunity to look back at 35 years of cooperation. It is also a reminder that the strength of Europe depends on our ability to work together. 🇪🇺

🍷 Did you know Poland makes wine?

Poland’s winemaking story is much older than many people might expect. Vineyards existed here in the Middle Ages, with wine production developing around monasteries, royal estates and towns. Although the tradition declined significantly over the following centuries, recent decades have brought a remarkable revival of Polish viticulture.

Today, 🇵🇱 has around 700 registered wine producers and more than 1,000 hectares of registered vineyards. Poland's relatively cool climate is particularly well suited to fresh and aromatic white wines and increasingly popular sparkling wines, while Polish producers also make rosé and red wines. Frequently cultivated varieties include Solaris, Johanniter, Seyval Blanc, Riesling, Regent and Rondo.

🍇 Vineyards are now found across many parts of the country. Among Poland's notable wine-growing areas are Lubuskie in western Poland, Lower Silesia, Małopolska and Podkarpacie in the southeast. Each offers different soils and local conditions, making contemporary Polish wine surprisingly diverse.

Late summer is also the season of food, harvest and wine festivals in many parts of Poland. One of the best known is the International Wine Days in Jasło Międzynarodowe Dni Wina w Jaśle taking place 28–30 August 2026 in Jasło, Podkarpacie, where winemakers and visitors come together to discover Polish wines and celebrate the country's renewed winemaking tradition. 🍇🍷

Perhaps it is time to add Polish wine to your list of things to discover in Poland! 🇵🇱

🏔️ Zakopane is alive with music, dance and highlander traditions!

Until 27 August, Poland’s winter capital is hosting the 57th International Festival of Highland Folklore - one of the most colourful celebrations of mountain cultures in Europe.

Groups from Poland and countries including Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Ghana, Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Senegal, Slovakia and Türkiye are bringing to Zakopane their music, dance, costumes and traditions.

On 26 August, the programme includes traditional music competitions, “Music of the Carpathian Arc”, a concert by Jan Karpiel-Bułecka and friends, and an open-air dance evening.

The festival is also a reminder that Poland’s highlander culture is not simply something preserved in museums. In Podhale, traditional music, craftsmanship, costumes and customs continue to be passed from generation to generation and remain part of everyday cultural life. 🇵🇱

It’s inspiring to see that 80% of Ukrainians in Poland now speak communicative or advanced Polish. 70% have at least one Polish person they can rely on in times of need.
It’s a powerful proof of:
🤝 Cooperation over division
🌱 Integration over isolation
💙 Shared strength
Friendship and communication are the foundations of a resilient society.

On 23 August 1939, N**i Germany and the Soviet Union signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact. Attached to it was a secret protocol establishing German and Soviet spheres of influence across Central and Eastern Europe, including the partition of Polish territory.

On 1 September 1939, N**i Germany invaded Poland from the west. On 17 September, the Soviet Union invaded 🇵🇱 from the east. Attacked by N**i Germany and the Soviet Union from two directions, Poland was forced to fight two powerful aggressors, making continued organized defence increasingly untenable.

Following Poland’s military defeat, the new friends - N**i Germany and the Soviet Union - divided the occupied Polish territories between them. On 28 September 1939, they signed the German–Soviet Boundary and Friendship Treaty, establishing a new border on the territory of the conquered Polish state.

Eighty-seven years later, this history carries a particularly important message. Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine shows that the threat of attempting to impose spheres of influence by force has not disappeared from our part of Europe.

The lesson of 1939 remains relevant: no great power has the right to decide the fate, borders or sovereignty of independent nations.

We remember. We learn from history. We stand for freedom.
