Where is Slupsk Located?
What Country is Slupsk in?
I had my first encounter with Stolp in the Form of a book. Christian Graf von Krockow, who grew up in the area of Stolp, dedicates to the city in his book “The Journey to Pomerania” some pages that are riddled with childhood memories and historical figures. Thus, the reader learns that the town, which is now located in the Pomorskie Voivodeship, was first mentioned in 1013 as Slup in a document by name. Other names for the place on the Bank of the Stolpe were Slupz, Slupsk, or Slupik. From the naming the historians deduced that it was an originally Slavic settlement. When Stolp became Polish after World War II, the new Polish inhabitants followed the story and renamed Stolp in Słupsk.
