Pawiak Elm monumenent, Bronze monument at Museum of Pawiak Prison, Warsaw, Poland.

The Pawiak Elm monument stands as a bronze cast of an original elm tree that stood outside the prison until 1984.

The original elm tree served as a memorial wall from 1945 to 1984, where families placed flowers and messages for prisoners who died during World War II.

The bronze casting preserves every detail of the original tree's trunk and branches, representing strength and endurance through difficult periods of Polish history.

Located in front of the Museum of Pawiak Prison entrance, the monument stands as a central point for commemorative ceremonies and educational gatherings.

Messages, photographs, and memorial plaques attached to the original tree were incorporated into the bronze casting, maintaining their historical placement.
