history
In the Middle Ages there was the diocese of Cammin for the Szczecin Pomerania , founded in 1140 by Pope Innocent II and as an exemte diocese placed directly under the Holy See, because in the conflict the German archbishopric Magdeburg and the Polish archbishopric Gnesen equally claimed supervision. Cammin had only been a bishopric since 1175. From 1544 Protestant bishops were installed. The diocese died out in 1650 as a result of the Peace of Westphalia concluded two years earlier .
On June 28, 1972, Pope Paul VI established with the Apostolic Constitution Episcoporum Poloniae coetus from territories of the Diocese of Berlin after the Second World War due to the Potsdam Agreement administered by Poland and 1950 in Görlitz contract by the GDR , with 1,970 signed and on May 17, 1972 ratified the Warsaw Treaty by the Federal Republic of Germany was recognized as Polish territory, the dioceses of Stettin-Cammin and Köslin-Kolberg and assigned them as suffragan dioceses to the church province of Gniezno . The cathedral church was the Jacob's Cathedral in Stettin (since 1983 Basilica minor ); The co-cathedral is the Cammin Cathedral in Kamień Pomorski (Cammin) . During the restructuring of the Polish dioceses in 1992 ( Apostolic Constitution Totus Tuus Poloniae Populus of March 25), Stettin-Cammin was elevated to an archbishopric and the dioceses of Koszalin-Kołobrzeg (Köslin-Kolberg) and Zielona Góra-Gorzów (Grünberg-Landsberg) assumed.
