Monument to General Jerzy Ziętek in Katowice, Bronze statue in Park Powstańców, Katowice, Poland
The memorial features General Ziętek as an elderly man holding documents and supporting himself with a walking cane near the Spodek arena in Katowice.
Inaugurated in 2005, the monument commemorates General Jerzy Ziętek, who served as voivode of Silesia from 1945 and contributed to regional development.
The statue represents a significant public figure who spoke the Silesian dialect and managed local affairs during the post-war reconstruction period.
The monument stands near the General Jerzy Ziętek railway station, making it accessible to visitors arriving by public transportation.
The statue faced removal under the 2016 decommunization law but was relocated to the Museum of History in Katowice for educational purposes.
