Żuławy Wiślane is one of the most fascinating regions of Poland - full of geographical and historical curiosities. Disasters, floods and sudden twists of events have happened here. Canals, islands, polders, canals, locks and dams were created - and the course of all this was interfered by Poles, Germans, Dutch, Teutonic Knights and of course nature itself. How were Żuławy Wiślane created? How did the Vistula Delta develop? What extraordinary stories are hidden behind such names as Wisła Śmiała, Wisła Elbląska, Wisła Gdańska, Wisła Królewiecka - Martwa Wisła, Leniwka, Nogat and Przekop Wisły? How was Westerplatte created - where are the biggest depressions - and why did the Germans deliberately flood Żuławy? ----- ❤️ PATRONITE This channel exists thanks to passion, thousands of hours spent on creating episodes - and the support of Patrons.
