Investigation into the forced germanization of Polish children in the Lebensborn factory (Połczyn Zdrój) in the years 1939-1945
On the basis of witnesses' testimonies it was disclosed that several hundred Polish and Ukrainian children were kept in the Lebensborn factory. The German archives were contacted to disclose documentation concerning the functioning of the factory, particularly the personal files of Polish children. The difficulties in reaching the victims are caused by the fact that their identities were changed. A further development of the investigation depends on the results of the research in the German archives.
