- 1815-1945: Province of Posen. The Province of Posen (German: Provinz Posen, Polish: Prowincja Poznańska) was a province of Prussia from 1815 and as such part of the German Empire from 1871 until 1918.
- 1918-1939: Second Polish Republic.
- 1939-1945: Some districts of the former province of Posen later became part of the Reichsgau Wartheland during the Nazi German occupation of Poland from 1939 to 1945. By the time World War II ended in May 1945, it had been overrun by the Red Army. In 1945, following Germany's defeat in World War II, Stalin's demanded all of the German territory east of the newly established Oder–Neisse line of the Potsdam Agreement was either turned over to Poland or the Soviet Union. As a result, all historical parts of the province came under Polish control.
