"Görlitz (en polaco Zgorzelec) es la ciudad más oriental de Alemania, y se encuentra en la parte de la Alta Lusacia situada en la Baja Silesia (Polonia). Görlitz es la sexta ciudad por tamaño del estado de Sajonia, después de Leipzig, Dresde, Chemnitz, Zwickau y Plauen. Al redefinirse las fronteras finalizada la Segunda Guerra Mundial el lado oriental de la ciudad, de tamaño mucho menor, pasó a pertenecer a Polonia, recibiendo el nombre de Zgorzelec."
"Görlitz ([lts ] ; Polish: Zgorzelec, Upper Sorbian: Zhorjelc, Lower Sorbian: Zgórjelc, Czech: Zhoelec) is a town in Germany and the capital of the district of Görlitz. It is the easternmost town in the country, located on the Lusatian Neisse River in the Bundesland (Federal State) of Saxony. It is opposite the Polish town of Zgorzelec, which was a part of Görlitz until 1945. Görlitz is the second biggest town of Lusatia and the biggest of Upper Lusatia. It belonged to the Electorate of Saxony since 1635. In 1815, due to the partition of Saxony, some parts of Lusatia were integrated into the Prussian Province of Silesia, and later into the Province of Lower Silesia. Görlitz is the largest city of the former Province of Lower Silesia that lies west of the Oder-Neisse line and hence remains in Germany today. Thus it is both the most Silesian city, in terms of character, and the largest, in Germany today. This is not unjustified since the city adapted to a large extent to the rest of Silesia when it was part of it administratively. The city combines Lusatian and Silesian traditions as well as German and Sorbian culture. Görlitz has a rich architectural heritage. Many movie-makers have used the various sites as backgrounds."
