Greetings from Jerusalem Avenue, Art installation at Charles de Gaulle Roundabout, Warsaw, Poland.

The artificial date palm rises 15 meters high in the center of the roundabout, constructed from plastic materials and natural components.

The artwork was unveiled in December 2002 after artist Joanna Rajkowska visited Israel and conceived the project for Jerusalem Avenue.

The palm connects to the street name's origin, referencing the former Jewish settlement of New Jerusalem established in Warsaw in 1772.

The structure requires regular maintenance, including replacement of leaves and bark, plus preservation of its steel frame through scheduled renovations.

The palm installation transformed from a temporary exhibit into a permanent fixture after 75 percent of Warsaw residents voted for its preservation.
