Poległym w Służbie i Obronie Polski Ludowej Monument, Communist-era monument in Iron-Gate Square, Warsaw, Poland.

The monument measures 16 meters in height and 20 meters in length, constructed from a combination of bronze and granite materials.

Inaugurated on July 20, 1985, during the 40th anniversary of the Polish People's Republic, the monument stood until its removal in 1991.

The structure represented military efforts during Poland's communist period, later replaced by the Tadeusz Kościuszko Monument after political changes.

Sections of the dismantled monument are now stored at the Municipal Roads Management base in Warsaw and partially displayed in Ruda Śląska.

The monument contained 60 tons of materials, making it the largest memorial construction in Warsaw after World War II.
