Hebrew term or phrase: פוטצ'ן
I'm translated an article that deals with the German Catholic Church, and a footnote says:

מצבם של הצעירים הגרמנים הדאיג את ראשי הכנסייה והיה אחד הנושאים המרכזים בכינוסי הבישופים הגרמנים בשנת 1945, בכנס שנערך **בפוטצ'ן***, 6-8.11.45, הוחלט על מספר עקרונות יסוד לבנייה מחדש של ארגוני הנוער הקתוליים

I have been searching for פוטצ'ן endlessly and I can't find it, it's some city in Germany I assume. Any ideas?

Thanks!
