Monument to the Battle of Monte Cassino in Warsaw, War memorial near Krasiński Gardens, Warsaw, Poland.
The Monument to the Battle of Monte Cassino in Warsaw is a memorial featuring a headless Nike figure standing atop a marble-clad concrete column. The structure rises prominently and displays military emblems at its base.
This memorial honors Polish soldiers of the 2nd Corps who captured Monte Cassino on May 18, 1944. The victory marked a crucial turning point in the war for Polish forces fighting in Italy.
The memorial displays inscriptions of the Monte Cassino Cross and emblems representing five Polish military units involved in this campaign. These symbols remind visitors of the different regiments that worked together to achieve this victory.
The memorial stands at the intersection of General Anders Street and Krasiński Gardens, beside the National Archaeological Museum in Warsaw. The location is easy to find and offers good visibility from the surrounding area.
The memorial required special ground stabilization with foundation holes dug several meters deep to support its heavy weight. This extensive foundation work was one of the most challenging engineering projects in Warsaw's public space.
