"Today Opole, along with the surrounding region, is known as a centre of the German-speaking Silesian minority in Poland."

Nevertheless, Opole itself does not have bilingual status? -- megA (talk) 16:09, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to the Act of 6 January 2005 on national and ethnic minorities and on regional languages communes where persons belonging to a national, ethnic minority or using a regional language constitute at least 20% of the inhabitants can introduce a minority language as a "supporting language". In Opole city-commune Germans constitute less then 10% of population. Aotearoa (talk) 11:54, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
