Research into cultural property missing from
the library
The library was almost
completely destroyed during a bombing raid on 29/30 January 1944. One-fifth of its collection was
lost. The majority of the library's collection had already been placed into
storage at Bellichen/ Oder (near Berlin) in 1943. This collection was removed by
the Soviet Army in 1945. A small part of the collection which had been placed
into a different storage location formed the basis for the rebuilding of the
library collection after the Second World War. The library has not compiled a
detailed list of its missing collection, whose fate remains unknown.
