The precise location of the border was left open; the western Allies also accepted in general the principle of the Oder-Neisse line as the future western border of Poland and of population transfer as the way to prevent future border disputes.
The open question was whether the border should follow the eastern or western Neisse, and whether it should include Szczecin/Stettin in Poland.
Churchill said a Soviet concession on that point would be admired as "a gesture of magnanimity" and declared that, with respect to Poland's post-war government, the British would "never be content with a solution which did not leave Poland a free and independent state." (Ibid., Bohlen Minutes, p.

The spa town is famed for the hauntingly romantic and bombed-out ruin of a neo-Renaissance castle, built by Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau, an eccentric 19th century nobleman, who also laid out the vast English-style landscape garden--the largest of its kind in Europe--that surrounds the chateau.
When a new pedestrian crossing over the Neisse was opened between Ostritz and Krzewina in 1994, several dozen German villagers signed a petition against it, alleging that they would have to double-lock their doors and bar their windows because "the Poles will come over to Ostritz and steal."

 CNN Cold War - The Oder-Neisse Line
At issue, however, was just where Poland's new western border should lie.
The Soviets called for the so-called Oder-Neisse Line to be adopted -- a boundary established by the Oder and Neisse rivers, running from the city of Swinoujscie on the Baltic Sea south to the Czechoslovakian border.
Britain and the United States, realizing the numbers of Germans who would be displaced by the Soviet plan, suggested an alternative border that would have granted the Germans more territory.

For maps of the area in and around Germany (Central and Eastern Europe) try the shtetl-seeker at http://www.jewishgen.org/ShtetlSeeker/loctown.htm The great thing about shtetl-seeker is it understands the old spellings of places that now are spelled differently, like Pommern, which is now Polish.
Another web-site that deals with the former and current names of places in Eastprussia is http://www.kartenmeister.com/ It includes only areas east of the Oder and Neisse rivers: Memel, Westprussia, Brandenburg, Posen, Pommerania, and Silesia.
Most of these are areas that Germany lost to Poland and Lithuania after World War I. One nice feature is that it will give you a list of places that are around a larger city or town.
