Stefan Wyszyński Monument in Warsaw, Bronze memorial monument in central Warsaw, Poland.
The memorial features Cardinal Wyszyński in cardinal robes standing tall with his hands folded, cast in bronze at a height of three meters.
The monument was unveiled on May 27, 1987, six years after Cardinal Wyszyński's death, commemorating his role as Archbishop of Warsaw from 1948 to 1981.
The memorial represents Cardinal Wyszyński's dedication to preserving Polish Catholic identity during the Communist period, when he led the church through political oppression.
The monument stands in a public space accessible every day, with benches nearby allowing visitors to contemplate the cardinal's legacy in Polish history.
During his imprisonment from 1953 to 1956, Wyszyński wrote notes that later became published as 'Prison Notes,' which influenced the monument's contemplative design.
