history

During the Second World War , the German occupation authorities formed the district of Jarotschin in the administrative district of Poznan , which included the former districts of Jarotschin and Pleschen . The annexation of the area by the German Reich on October 26, 1939 , as a unilateral act of violence, was ineffective under international law. Most of the Jewish population was murdered by the German occupation authorities. The German occupation ended with the invasion of the Red Army in January 1945.

Place names

During the German occupation, the place names valid in 1918 were initially adopted by an unpublished decree of December 29, 1939, but "wild" Germanizations by the local occupation authorities soon followed.
