WOP post in Trzebina, Military border guard post in Trzebina, Poland
Description
The WOP post in Trzebina is a former border guard installation positioned near the village of Trzebina in the Opole Voivodeship in southwestern Poland. The facility served as a checkpoint station along the shifting international boundaries of Central Europe.
History
The installation was established in 1945 and served as a key checkpoint along the Polish-Czechoslovak border. It continued operations through shifts in territorial agreements until modern border management practices reorganized guard activities in the early 2000s.
Culture
The post reflects a period when strict border surveillance shaped daily life in this region, with evidence of how guards maintained their watch over movement between nations.
Practical
The former post is located at Trzebina 87 and has been superseded by border operations now managed from Głuchołazy. Visitors should note this is a historical site rather than an operational facility, and planning ahead is recommended for access.
