I got something like a baptism on my German ancestors from Ueckermunde. It was attested to. It's address was:0-2120 Uckermunde.
Is this the number for the gemeinde?

What is 2120? Ancestors from Ueckermunde

TheOther was right, AI confirms it:
"Yes, 0-2120 is indeed an "old" postal code. Specifically, it is an outdated, pre-reunification East German (GDR) zip code that was used for the seaport town of Ueckermünde prior to 1993.In unified Germany, all 5-digit postal codes were standardized to the current system starting in July 1993."
