ドイツ騎士団国
The memory of Hermann von Balk's leading role in the conquest and Christianization of the Chełmno Land and as the actual founder of the State of the Teutonic Order was very much alive in West Prussia until the annexation of this area to Poland in 1919. This is evidenced by numerous monuments and in particular artfully designed fountains in West Prussian cities, which are dedicated to this first Landmaster.
