About Schwerin Warthe
This website features scans of picture postcards
and archive historic photographs of one small town in Central
Europe. The images date from late 1897 through to a final
photograph of the Red Army's arrival in the town in 1945. They
form part of an extensive private collection of historic images of
Schwerin an der Warthe, and other towns and villages of what was
Brandenburg / Neumark, Prussia, Germany. As a result of the border
changes agreed at the Potsdam Conference at the end of the Second
World War and since 1945 Schwerin has been Polish and is known as
Skwierzyna. The town is now part of the province of Lubuskie,
Poland. This website features just a small sample of what we have
in our archive. When time allows we will scan and add more images
to the Schwerin Warthe website. Should you share our interest in
the history of the area please feel free to contact us.
