Documents based on teaching of the Second Vatican Council about reconciliation, brotherhood and ecumenism slowly changed minds of those who were against common agreement. In the last part the author describes Christian witnesses from Poland and Germany. There is a new way joining two countries, the way of peace, dialog and cooperation. In history we had Saint Wojciech (Adalbert), Brunon from Kwerfurt, Otton from Bamberg, Hedwig, Maksymilian Kolbe, Edith Stein, Bernhard Lichtenberg and many others. There are some historical possibilities of good relationships in the futureplAttribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/pl/EuropaEuropa Środkowo-Wschodniahistoriaprzełom demokratycznyprzemiany społeczno-politycznePolskapolitykaspołeczeństwodekomunizacja Europy WschodniejNiemcyzjednoczenie Niemiecorędzie pojednaniaStuttgarcka Karta wypędzonychstosunki polsko-niemieckieKościół w PolscebiskupiEpiskopat Polskichrześcijaństwochrześcijanieświadectwo chrześcijańskieEuropeCentral and Eastern Europehistorydemocratic breakthroughsocio-political transformationsPolandpoliticssocietydecommunisation of Eastern EuropeGermanyreunification of Germanymessage of reconciliationStuttgart Charter of ExpelleesPolish-German relationsChurch in PolandbishopsPolish EpiscopateChristianityChristiansChristian testimonyArticle
