. November 11 is an important date for all Poles, including the Norwegian Polish community. We met on this day at the Felix Cultural Center to celebrate the 101st anniversary of independent Poland. It was a special day under the watchful patronage of the Embassy. We were there and we present a report from this event especially for you. Only here, there is a speech by the Ambassador of the Republic of Poland in Oslo, Iwona Woicka-Żuławska, and an appeal to the entire Polish community in Norway. Watch - let's appreciate freedom and enjoy it.
Independence Day celebrations in Norway - an extraordinary exhibition
The event at the Fenix House of Culture was moving for all of us. Particularly noteworthy was the exhibition referring to the day Poland regained its independence. We could watch original excerpts from Norwegian newspapers and articles that referred to an event so important for the entire Polish nation. Original articles from local magazines have been preserved. Awesome! It turns out that regaining Poland's independence left its mark and was significant not only for Poland itself, but also for the whole of Europe. The world press, including the Norwegian press, lived through this significant transformation.
Independence Day celebrations in Norway. Let's remember about freedom!
The Ambassador of the Republic of Poland in Oslo moved with her speech. Memory is a very important thing. Memory and respect for the country, for ourselves - respect for the freedom that we can enjoy in times of peace. Often, in the multitude of important matters, at the current pace of life, we forget how incredibly lucky we are to live "here and now" - to live in times of peace, without enslavement... However, it is worth stopping, at least for a moment, and thinking about our compatriots who lived in that time. period. About all the people who fought for our country, fought in the name of our common freedom. That's why it's worth celebrating days like November 11 - every year!
