Warsaw Uprising Monument, War memorial at Krasiński Square, Warsaw, Poland
The monument features a 10-meter bronze sculpture depicting resistance fighters in combat, with figures emerging from a simulated manhole cover at ground level.
The memorial commemorates the 63-day Warsaw Uprising of 1944, when Polish resistance forces fought against Nazi German occupation forces without Soviet support.
The monument serves as a central location for annual commemorative ceremonies on August 1, marking the start date of the Warsaw Uprising.
The memorial stands in a freely accessible public space, with inscribed plaques providing information about the resistance movement's escape routes through city sewers.
The structure includes two separate sculptural groups: the main combat scene and a smaller installation showing fighters entering the underground sewer system.
