Kołobrzeg [kɔˈwɔbʐɛk] (German: Kolberg ; Kashubian: Kòłobrzeg; Latin: Cholbergensis) is a city in Middle Pomerania in north-western Poland with some 50,000 inhabitants (as of 2000). Kołobrzeg is located on the Parsęta River on the south coast of the Baltic Sea (in the middle of the section divided by the Oder and Vistula Rivers). It has been the capital of Kołobrzeg County in West Pomeranian Voivodship since 1999, and previously was in Koszalin Voivodship (1950–1998).

During the Early Middle Ages, Slavic Pomeranians founded a stronghold at the site of modern Budzistowo. Thietmar of Merseburg first mentioned the site as Salsa Cholbergiensis. Around the year 1000, the area was under Polish rule and the stronghold briefly became seat of the Diocese of Kołobrzeg. During High Middle Ages, Colberg (later spelling Kolberg) was founded north of the stronghold in the course of the Ostsiedlung and chartered with Lübeck law. It later joined the Hanseatic League. Within the Duchy of Pomerania, Kolberg was the urban center of the secular reign of the Cammin bishops and their residence throughout the High and Late Middle Ages. When Kolberg was part of Brandenburgian Pomerania during the Early Modern Age, it withstood Napoleon's and Polish troops in the Siege of Kolberg. From 1815, it was part of the Prussian province of Pomerania. In 1945 the town was annexed by Poland and the remaining German population which did not flee the advancing Red Army was later expelled. The town, devastated in the preceding Battle of Kolberg, was rebuilt but lost its status as the regional center to nearby Koszalin.

Etymology

"Kołobrzeg" literally means "by the shore" in Polish: "koło" translates as "by"[1] and "brzeg" translates as "shore".[2] Also known as German: Kolberg ; Kashubian: Kòłobrzeg and Latin: Cholbergensis.

History

Early Middle Ages: Slavic Pomeranian stronghold

According to Piskorski (1999) and Kempke (2001), Slavic immigration reached Farther Pomerania in the 7th century.[3][4] According to Gasztold (1975) and the city website, first Slavic settlements in the vicinity of Kołobrzeg were centered around nearby deposits of salt and date to 6th and 7th century.[5][6]

In the late 9th century, a Slavic Pomeranian stronghold was built at the site of modern Budzistowo[7] near modern Kołobrzeg,[8] replacing nearby Bardy-Świelubie, a multi-ethnic emporium, as the center of the region.[9] The Parseta valley, where both the emporium and the stronghold were located, was one of the Slavic Pomeranians' core settlement areas.[10] The stronghold consisted of a fortified burgh with a suburbium.[11][12]

The Pomeranians mined salt[13] in salt pans located in two downstream hills, Salzberg and Zillenberg.[14][15] They also engaged in fishing, and used the salt to conserve primarily herrings for trade.[15][16] Other important occupations were metallurgy and smithery, based on local iron ore reserves, other crafts like the production of combs from horn, and in the surrounding areas, agriculture.[15][17] Important sites in the settlement were a place for periodical markets and a tavern, mentioned as forum et taberna in 1140.[13]

In the 9th and 10th centuries, the Budzistowo stronghold was the largest of several smaller ones in the Persante area, and as such is thought to have functioned as the center of the local Slavic Pomeranian subtribe.[17] By the turn from the 10th to the 11th century, the smaller burghs in the Parseta area were given up.[17] Only two strongholds remained and underwent an enlargement, these were the one at Budzistowo and the predecessor of later Białogard (Belgard).[17] St. John's was in 1222 granted to Mogilno Abbey, while St. Petri's decayed before 1300.[13] In 10th century the trade of salt and fish led to the development of the settlement into a town.[18]

Piast Poland and conversion

St John's, a remains of the early medieval settlement in modern Budzistowo

During Polish rule of the area in the late 10th century, the chronicle of Thietmar of Merseburg (975-1018) mentions salsa Cholbergiensis as the see of the Diocese of Kołobrzeg, set up during the Congress of Gniezno in 1000 and placed under the Archdiocese of Gniezno.[8] The congress was organized by Polish king Bolesław Chrobry and Holy Roman Emperor Otto III, and also led to the establishment of bishoprics in Kraków and Wrocław, connecting the territories of the Polish state.[18]

The missionary efforts of bishop Reinbern were not successful, the Pomeranians revolted in 1005 and regained political and spiritual independence.[19][20][21][22] In 1013 Bolesław Chrobry removed his troops from Pomerania in face of war with Holy Roman Emperor Henry III.[6] The Polish - German war ended with Polish victory, which was confirmed by the 1018 Peace of Bautzen.

During his campaigns in the early 12th century, Bolesław III Wrymouth reacquired Pomerania for Poland, and made the local "Griffin" dynasty his vassals. The stronghold was captured by the Polish army in the winter of 1107/08, when the inhabitants (cives et oppidani) including a duke (dux Pomeranorum) surrendered without resistance.[23] A previous Polish siege of the burgh had been unsuccessful; although the duke had fled the burgh, the Polish army was unable to break through the fortifications and the two gates.[24] The army had however looted and burned the suburbium, which was not or only lightly fortified.[24] The descriptions given by the contemporary chroniclers make it possible that a second, purely militarily used castle existed near the settlement, yet neither is this certain nor have archaeological efforts been able to locate traces thereof.[25]

During the subsequent Christianization of the area by Otto of Bamberg, a St. Mary's church was built.[7] With this the German influence grew in strength.[18] After Boleslaw's death, the Duchy of Pomerania regained independence,[26] before the dukes became vassals of Denmark and the Holy Roman Empire in the late 12th century.

Besides St. Mary's, a St. John's church and a St. Petri's chapel were built.[13]

High and Late Middle Ages: A new town

Brick Gothic basilica St. Mary's

During the Ostsiedlung, a new town was founded by German settlers some kilometers off the site of the former Slavic burgh.[27][28][29] On May 23, 1255, this town was chartered under Lübeck law by Wartislaw III, Duke of Pomerania,[30][31] and more German settlers from the Holy Roman Empire arrived, attracted by the duke.[28] Hermann von Gleichen, German bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Kammin, was one of the signatories of the treaty and also supported the German colonisation of the region.[18] The German settlers received several privileges such as exemption from certain taxes.[18] According to the city's website, the local Slavic population was unable to compete economically with the German arrivals and impoverished.[18]

A new St. Mary's church was built within the new town before the 1260s,[32] while St. Mary's in the former Pomeranian stronghold was turned into a nuns' abbey.[7] In 1277 St. Benedict's monastery for nuns was founded, which in the framework of the Pomeranian Reformation in 1545 was then changed into an educational institution for noble protestantic ladies.[33] Henceforth, the name "Kolberg" (earlier German spelling Colberg) was used for the German town[31] exclusively, while the nearby former stronghold was turned into a village and renamed "Old Town" or "Old Kolberg" (Latin: antiqua civitatae Colbergensis, German: Altstadt or Alt-Kolberg), first documented in 1277 and used until 1945 when it was renamed "Budzistowo".[7][11]

Fuse Tower, last remnant of the medieval fortification

Already in 1248, the Kammin bishops and the Pomeranian dukes had interchanged the terrae Stargard and Kolberg, leaving the bishops in charge of the latter.[34] When in 1276 they became the souvereign of the town also, they moved their residence there, while the administration of the diocese was done from nearby Köslin (also Cöslin, now Koszalin).[34] In 1345, the bishops became Imperial immediate dukes in their secular reign.[34]

In 1361, Kolberg joined the Hanseatic League.

When the property of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Kammin was secularized during the Protestant Reformation in 1534, their secular reign including the Kolberg area became intermediately ruled by a Lutheran titular bishop, before it was turned into a Sekundogenitur of the House of Pomerania.[34]

In the 15th century the city traded with Scotland, Amsterdam and Scandinavia.[18] Beer, salt, honey, wool and flour were exported, while merchants imported textiles from England, southern fruits, and cod liver oil. In the 16th century, the city reached 5,000 inhabitants.[18] According to the city's website, the Slavs in the city were discriminated, and their rights in trade and crafts were limited, with bans on performing certain types of professions and taking certain positions[18]

During the Thirty Years' War, Kolberg was occupied by imperial forces from 1627 to 1630,[35] and thereafter by Swedish forces.[36] In 1644, a Danish-Swedish naval battle took place in the vicinity.

Modern era: In Prussia

Town hall. Karl Friedrich Schinkel planned the Neogothic building in 1826 as a substitute for the destroyed predecessor. Built 1829-32.[37]

Kolberg with most of Farther Pomerania was granted to Brandenburg-Prussia in the 1648 Treaty of Westphalia and, since the Treaty of Stettin (1653) was part of the Province of Pomerania, becoming part of the Kingdom of Prussia in 1701. In 1761 the town was captured by the Russian commander Peter Rumyantsev during the Seven Years' War. At the end of the war, however, Kolberg was returned to Prussia.

During Napoleon's invasion of Prussia during the War of the Fourth Coalition, the town was besieged by French armies from April 26 to July 2, 1807, as well as soldiers from the Polish state of Duchy of Warsaw. The city's defense, led by then Lieutenant-Colonel August von Gneisenau, held out until the war was ended by the Treaty of Tilsit. Kolberg became part of the Prussian Province of Pomerania in 1815 after the final defeat of Napoleon. Until 1872 it was administered within the Fürstenthum District ("Principality District", resembling the area's former special status), after which it was within Landkreis Kolberg-Körlin. Marcin Dunin archbishop of Poznań and Gniezno, primate of Poland was imprisoned by Prussian authorities in the years 1839-1840(he spent 10 months in prison;[38] after his release he tried to organise a chaplain for many Polish soldiers stationed in the city.[39] The beginning of Polish parish in modern times is connected to him[40]

Between 1924 and 1935 the American-German painter Lyonel Feininger, a tutor at the Staatliches Bauhaus, visited Kolberg repeatedly and painted the cathedral and environs of the town.

Polish diaspora

In the late 19th century Kolberg became a popular seaside resort and spa town among tourists from all over Germany with an amount of about 5 - 8 percent of Poles. Initially throughout the season, after about 1890 all the year, Polish masses were held in the Catholic Church of Kolberg[41] and during the period 1875-1914 an active Polish diaspora grew. Through its funds a Catholic school and the Church of Saint Marcin where masses in Polish were held, were established.[6][42]

Second World War

The city website mentions that during the Second World War the German state brought forced labour workers, among them Poles. The city's economy was changed to military production-especially after German invasion against Soviet Union.[18] The forced labourers were threatened with everyday harassment and repressions;they were forbidden from using phones, having cultural events and sports events, they could not visit restaurants, swimming pools and have contacts with local German population.[18] Only once per month were Poles allowed to attend a church mass-and only in German language.[18] They also had smaller food rations than Germans, had to wear the sign with the letter P on their clothes indicationg their ethnic background.[18] Additionally medical help was limited by authorities for Polish workers.[18] Arrests and imprisonment for various offenses such as "slow pace of work" or leaving work space were everyday occurrence[43]

In 1944 during the city was designated a "stronghold" (Festung) — Festung Kolberg. The 1807 siege was used shortly before the end of the war by Joseph Goebbels for the last Nazi propaganda film, Kolberg. It was meant to inspire the Germans with its depiction of the heroic Prussian defence during the Napoleonic Wars. Tremendous resources were devoted to filming this epic, even diverting tens of thousands of troops from the front lines to have them serve as extras in battle scenes. Ironically, the film was released in the final few weeks of Nazi Germany's existence, when most of the country's cinemas were already destroyed.

On 10 February 1945 German torpedo-boat T-196 brought to Kolberg about 300 survivors of the General von Steuben, which had been sunk by Soviet submarine S-13. As the Red Army advanced on Kolberg, most of the inhabitants and tens of thousands of refugees from surrounding areas (about 70,000 were trapped in the Kolberg Pocket), as well as 40,000 German soldiers, were evacuated from the besieged city by German naval forces in Operation Hannibal. Only about two-thousand soldiers were left on 17 March to cover last sea transports.

Between 4 March and 18 March 1945, there were major battles between the Soviet and Polish forces and the German army. Because of a lack of anti-tank weapons, German battleships used their guns to support the defenders of Kolberg until nearly all of the soldiers and civilians had been evacuated. On 18 March, the Polish Army re-enacted Poland's Wedding to the Sea ceremony, which had been celebrated for the first time in 1920 by General Józef Haller.

Post-war

After World War II, the devastated city along with all of Pomerania east of the Oder-Neisse line became Polish, and the remaining Germans either fled or were expelled. The city was resettled with Poles, many of whom had themselves been expelled from Kresy (see: Polish population transfers (1944–1946)), and historic buildings were restored.

Demographics

Before the end of World War II the population of the town was predominantly composed of Protestants. Since then the majority is composed of Catholics. Around the turn from the 18th to the 19th century an increase of the number of Catholics was observed, because military personnel had been moved from West Prussia to the town. The mother tongue of a number of soldiers serving in the garrison of Kolberg was Polish.

Millennium Memorial

"The Millennium Memorial by Wiktor Szostalo

In 2000 the city business council of Kołobrzeg commissioned "The Millennium Memorial" as a commemoration of 1000 years of Christianity in Pomerania, and as a tribute to Polish-German Reconciliation, celebrating the meeting of King Boleslaw I of Poland and King Otto III of Germany, at the Congress of Gniezno, in the year 1000.

It was designed and built by the artist Wiktor Szostalo in welded stainless steel. The two figures sit at the base of 15' tall cross, cleft in two and being held together by a dove holding an olive branch. It is installed outside the Basilica Cathedral in the city center.

Kołobrzeg today is a popular tourist destination for both Poles and the Germans. It provides a unique combination of a seaside resort, health resort, an old town full of historic monuments and tourist entertainment options (e.g. numerous "beer gardens").

Bike path to Podczele

The town is part of the European Route of Brick Gothic[47] network. A bike path "to Podczele", located along the seaside was commissioned on July 14, 2004. The path extends from Kołobrzeg to Podczele. The path has been financed by the European Union, and is intended to be part of a unique biking path that will ultimately circle the entire Baltic Sea[citation needed]. The path has been breached on Mar 24, 2010 due to the encroachment of the sea associated with the draining of the adjacent unique Eco-Park marsh area. The government of Poland has already allocated PLN 90,000 to repair the breach, and the works started in Dec 2010.
