After [[World War I]] the town became part of the [[Second Polish Republic]]. The local populace had to acquire Polish citizenship or leave the country. This led to a significant decline of ethnic Germans, whose number within the district decreased from 22,450 in 1910 to 9,417 in 1926 and further to 8,410 in 1934.<ref>{{cite book|url=http://books.google.de/books?id=KVg_tMs_ZPIC&pg=PA365&dq=Goetheschule+Graudenz&hl=de&ei=j-AlTdz_JsvDswaVy9DMAg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CDoQ6AEwBTgo#v=onepage&q=adelnau&f=false|title=Polens Politik gegenüber seiner deutschen Minderheit 1919-1939|first1=Albert S.|last1=Kotowski|page=56|publisher=Forschungsstelle Ostmitteleuropa, [[University of Dortmund]] |year=1998 |language=German|ISBN=3-447-03997-3}}</ref> |
