Pomnik Unii Lubelskiej in Lublin, Monument from 1826 in Litewski Square, Lublin, Poland.
The Pomnik Unii Lubelskiej is a cast iron obelisk standing 13 meters tall on a square stone pedestal with granite facing in Litewski Square. The structure features detailed relief work carved into its surfaces, which tells its story through sculptural imagery.
The monument was built in 1826 and commemorates the Polish-Lithuanian Union of 1569, when both nations formed a unified commonwealth. This political alliance shaped centuries of shared history and regional influence in Eastern Europe.
The relief shows two female figures representing Poland and Lithuania reaching toward each other, with their national emblems positioned between them. Visitors walking around the base can clearly observe this symbolic representation of partnership that remains central to the monument's meaning.
The monument stands in a public square and is easily accessible and visible from all directions. Visitors can approach the site at any time and view the structure from multiple angles to appreciate its details.
The monument received the European Heritage Label in 2007, recognition that set it apart as representing an important European connection. This distinction honors its significance as a symbol of cross-national cooperation in continental history.
