Polish legation in Belgium.
Scope and Content Note
This collection consists mainly of the secret correspondence sent and received by the Polish legation in Belgium between the
early 1930s and the first few months of World War II, relating to Polish-Belgian relations during the interwar period and
to Polish diplomacy at the outbreak of the war. Also included are lists and instructions regarding the code system, which
was frequently broken by the Germans.
These records were formerly part of the Polish Foreign Ministry collection, acquired by the Hoover Archives in 1959, and were
accessioned in the early 1990s as a separate collection.
A microfilm copy of these materials has been deposited in the State Archives of Poland in Warsaw.
