German Socio-Cultural Organisation in Wrocław

The German Socio-Cultural Organisation in Wrocław (in German Deutsche Sozial-Kulturelle Gesellschaft in Breslau, DSKG Breslau for short) is an organisation of the German minority in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. It has its seat in Wrocław and is a member of the Association of the German Socio-Cultural Organisations in Poland. It has about 1500 members, and its current chairwoman is Krystyna Kadlewicz.[1]

The organisation was established in 1991 following the fall of communism in Poland as a successor to the German Social and Cultural Society, which was established in 1957 and officially disbanded in 1981 following the declaration of martial law in Poland.[2] Its purpose is to promote German language, customs, and culture among ethnic Germans in the city.[1]

In order to qualify for standard membership in DSKG Breslau, a person must be an ethnic German, defined by the organisation as a person who has at least one documented German grandparent.[2]
