Summary/Abstract: The article presents the vicissitudes of a part of the collections of the Prussian State Library in Berlin, housed in the Jagiellonian Library in Cracow since 1947. ‘‘Berlinka’’, as the collection is commonly called, remains in Cracow as no solution of the problem of Polish cultural goods robbed and destroyed by the Third Reich during the Second World War has yet been arrived at in a form that would satisfy both parties. According to W. Kalicki, the author of publications on ‘‘Berlinka’’, the ‘‘Cracow treasure’’ is the last prisoner of the great war.
