Plunged in deep sorrow and pain, we say goodbye to

Professor Lech Kaczynski, President of the Republic of Poland

and

His wife, Mrs. Maria Kaczynska

and

Mr. Ryszard Kaczorowski, the last President of the II-nd Republic of Poland in exile.

Deaths of all  persons from the delegation accompanying Mr. President in His visit to the ceremony commemorating the 70-th anniversary of the crime committed on Polish officers in the Woods of Katyn make our pain and sorrow deeper.

We pay homage to all persons who died on their way to Katyn for Their will to commemorate the Polish officers and prisoners-of-war bestially murdered by the Soviet Union’s services in 1940.

This shocking 70-th anniverasy of genocide committed on Polish intelligentsia in Katyn and in other places of inhumane soil has become a date of a new tragedy, again threatening Poland.

However, we do hope that Merciful God shall cure suffering of families and friends of the crash victims and shall bring full understanding of seriousness of our current situation to the Polish Nation and shall provide It with power and courage to execute the message both fallen Presidents have left – to have Poland be a free Poland.

  „We do want to keep with the sea! This is a need and an unwavering necessity for the entire state and the entire nation. This great poem, crystallizing nearby Gdynia and targeted on gradual further expansion along the entire Polish sea coast, is a poem of peaceful and economic work building new foundations under our progress in the civilization journey. (…). And, above all, the most important thing is that today Gdynia is a spiritual property of the entire Polish population, earned with efforts resulting in this capital”.

Dear Internauts,

On behalf of the members of Stowarzyszenie Gdynian Wysiedlonych (Association of Displaced Gdynia Inhabitants) the Board is greeting all Internauts who have been so kind to visit our website!

Attack on the Polish Post Office building in Gdansk was an outbreak of the 2nd world war to become a beginning of an ordeal for millions of Polish people, including inhabitants of the city of Gdynia. The Board of the Association believes that thanks to its initiative the citizens shall acquaint with lots of the Gdynia inhabitants in the years 1939-1945.

Our Association has initiated a series of popular science sessions that bring the German assault against Poland closer, in particular against Gdynia – times of fights to defence the city and of repressions against the Polish population after it had been sized, including massive displacements. We shall publish texts of delivered speeches and historical elaborations regarding Gdynia and its inhabitants during that tragic times on our website. Also our memoirs related to those difficult years shall find their places here.

The blessed priest, Wladyslaw Miegon, Acting Sub-Lieutenant, was closely related to the pre-war Gdynia. In the naval environment, as well as among many Gdynia inhabitants, He had a reputation for a chaplain of the Polish Navy. His character appears in numerous memoirs concerning even the very late moments of fights in the Oksywie district.
