Editing Chojnice (section)

===Chojnice since 1945===
In February 1945 the [[Red Army]] captured the town. During the fighting about 800 soldiers died, and the town centre was heavily damaged. After the end of World War II Polish authorities began the reconstruction of the city. In 1945–1975, it was part of the Pomeranian Voivodeship, and during the time span 1975–1998 the town belonged to the [[Bydgoszcz Voivodeship]].

In 2002 a new, modern hospital was opened on the north-west outskirts of the town.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.chojnice.com/wiadomosci/teksty/Chojnicki-Szpital-ma-juz-10-lat/7821 |title=Chojnicki Szpital ma już 10 lat! |access-date=1 June 2020}}</ref>
