Pomnik Wyzwolenia Ziemi Warmińsko-Mazurskiej w Olsztynie
Pomnik Wyzwolenia Ziemi Warmińsko-Mazurskiej w Olsztynie, Soviet-era monument in Olsztyn, Poland.
The monument consists of two thirteen-meter granite pylons forming an incomplete triumphal arch with a soldier figure holding a freedom banner.
Built in 1954 to commemorate the Soviet Army's entry into Olsztyn in January 1945, using stone materials from the demolished Hindenburg Mausoleum.
Xawery Dunikowski, an Auschwitz concentration camp survivor, designed the monument with bas-reliefs depicting World War II battles on one pylon.
The monument stands in Xawery Dunikowski Square in downtown Olsztyn, near the Provincial Administrative Court and Marshal's Office building.
The seven-meter soldier figure on the right pylon raises one hand with a banner while keeping the other hand clenched in a fist.
