Warsaw Uprising Monument, War memorial near Krasiński Square, Warsaw, Poland
Two connected bronze structures depict resistance fighters running from a collapsing building while others descend into the underground sewer system.
The monument commemorates the 1944 Warsaw Uprising when Polish resistance fighters battled against German forces for 63 days during World War II.
The memorial represents a turning point in Polish remembrance, as its 1989 unveiling marked the end of decades of official silence about the uprising.
The monument stands 10 meters tall at the intersection of Długa and Miodowa Streets, with multiple public transportation options nearby.
German President Roman Herzog delivered a historic apology speech at this monument in 1994 for Nazi crimes committed during World War II.
