Don't believe in Polish sources in this issue, because they never will admit that Copernicus indeed was an ethnical German.
Since 1945 they try to Polonize him.

Don't spread lies on this forum. we don't know much about his ethnicity ( it was a long time ago) but he was born in the Polish town of Toruń and his name was Mikołaj Kopernik. According to your way of thinking Maria Skłodowska-Curie could be French because she married a French guy and studied and worked in France.
