Summary/Abstract: The article presents the responses of German press to the events of 28th June 1956 in Poznań. The analysis is based on a collection of German press at the Institute for Western Affairs in Poznań (the following titles have been considered: ‘‘Bayern-Kurier’’, ‘‘Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung’’, ‘‘Ost-West-Kurier’’, ‘‘Rheinischer Merkur’’, ‘‘Der Spiegel’’, ‘‘Die Welt’’, ‘‘Der Tagesspiegel’’, ‘‘Die Zeit’’, ‘‘Neues Deutschland’’). The accounts and assessments of the workers riots against the communist regime are evidence of interest in the sources and course of the Poznań rising both in the FRG and the GDR.
