Enigma cryptologist monument in Poznań, Memorial to World War II cryptologists at Imperial Castle, Poland.
The triangular prism monument features mathematical sequences and honors three Polish mathematicians who decrypted German military communications during World War II.
Marian Rejewski, Jerzy Różycki, and Henryk Zygalski studied at Poznań University and later worked at the Polish Army's Cipher Bureau to break the Enigma code.
The 2007 monument represents the intersection of mathematics, military intelligence, and Polish academic excellence in the early 20th century.
The Enigma Cipher Centre next to the monument offers exhibits about encryption methods and the mathematical procedures used to decode German messages.
The memorial stands at the exact location where the three cryptologists received their mathematical education before their groundbreaking work in military intelligence.
