I'm very interested in the clearly German cities that now find themselves in other territories such as Danzig, Memel, Kolberg and Maribor (the former names I know). Maribor for instance, had a population of 80% Austrian Germans in the 1920s. I'd like to know how German are they now? I know that a lot of Volksdeutsch were expelled following World War II from these areas but I was wondering if there was still a noticeable German presence and influence on these cities. Have you ever visited any of them and if you have, which ones would you recommend to visit from an architectural and cultural point of view?
