Mały Powstaniec, Memorial statue in Old Town, Warsaw, Poland.
The bronze statue depicts a young boy wearing an oversized German helmet, military coat, and carrying a submachine gun near the defensive walls.
Sculptor Jerzy Jarnuszkiewicz designed this monument in 1946 while volunteering in the reconstruction of Warsaw after World War II.
The memorial includes a commemorative plaque with lyrics from the Warsaw Children insurgent song and a scout cross on red sandstone.
Located at the intersection of Podwale Street and Wąski Dunaj Street, the monument stands accessible to visitors near the eighth defensive tower.
The monument represents children participants of the Warsaw Uprising, including 9-year-old Jerzy Romuald Grzelak, who served as the youngest active fighter.
