Pomnik Powstańców Wielkopolskich, Monument to the Greater Poland Uprising in Poznań, Poland
The granite monument reaches 17 meters in height and features bronze reliefs depicting scenes from the Greater Poland Uprising, including soldiers and national symbols.
The monument, unveiled in 1965, stands as a testament to the 1918-1919 uprising when Polish citizens fought to reclaim the Greater Poland region from German control.
The monument includes sculptures of two soldiers, an officer with a sword and an infantry rifleman, representing the military ranks that participated in the uprising.
Located at the intersection of Wierzbięcice and Królowej Jadwigi streets, the monument underwent complete restoration work before the uprising's centennial celebration in 2018.
The bronze sculptural element wrapping around the obelisk spans over three meters and contains detailed depictions of historical scenes, including an eagle and Marcin Kasprzak.
