Timeline

1954

Thaddäus Schäpe (7 March 1954 – 1 September 2004) As the founder and first head of the House of Polish-German Cooperation, following the fall of communism, Schäpe saliently contributed to the process of German-Polish reconciliation, especially in the historical region of Upper Silesia.

Thaddäus Schäpe was born on 7 March 1954 in Koźle (nowadays part of Kędzierzyn-Koźle), Poland.

Following World War II, at the Potsdam Conference the Allies passed to Poland most of the German territories east of the Oder-Neisse line.

With the Allies' approval and cooperation, these territories' German populations were expelled to postwar Germany.

Yet, some populations, defined as 'autochthonous' (autochtoni in Polish) and seen as of Slavic origin were retained, including in Upper Silesia.

Nowadays their descendants identify as Silesians and members of the German minority.

Although officially autochthons were regarded to be Polish, during the communist period they were targeted with a variety of forced Polonizing measures, including changes to their names and surnames for the sake of making them appear less German and more Polish.

As a result, when Schäpe was born, his parents had no choice but to use the Polonized form of their surname and to give their son a name deemed as Polish.

At birth he was named Tadeusz Szopa.

1970

At the turn of the 1970s, in the broader framework of détente, West Germany and communist Poland established relations.

As an element of this process, Warsaw agreed to let for tightly controlled emigration of autochthons to West Germany.

After arriving to West Germany they were defined as Aussiedlers, or ethnic German 'resettlers.' At that time, Schäpe's family left for West Germany, where their regained the traditional German spelling of their surname and first names.

Due to the lack of umlaut letters in the Polish spelling system, in Polish-language literature, Schäpe's surname is often given as Schaepe and his given name as Thaddaeus, or in the Polish language form as Tadeusz.
