Famous, not fully remembered. Alfons Maria Buchholz (1884-1957) – a distinguished inhabitant of Lidzbark Warmiński
The amazing story of a priest of great faith was presented by Dr. Ralf Meindl, a researcher of the history of East Prussia, a propagator of regional history.

Father Alfons Maria Buchholz from 1920 served as the parish priest of St. Peter and Paul in Lidzbark Warmiński. On his initiative, m.in in 1920, a cemetery was created in the former bishop's gardens, the current communal one, a house for seniors, the current Commune Office. First of all, in 1924, the creation of the Castle Reconstruction Board was initiated.

The meeting was carried out as part of the project "Conservation and restoration of the fourteenth-century castle in Lidzbark Warmiński – pearls of Gothic architecture in Poland – iii stage", implemented from funds received from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway as part of EEA funds, as well as the Minister of Culture of National Heritage and Sport and the Self-Government of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship.

Together we work for a Europe that is green, competitive, and inclusive.
