December 1970 Monument in Szczecin, Bronze monument at Solidarity Square, Poland.
The December 1970 Monument stands 11 meters tall, featuring an angel with vertical wings holding a crown of thorns in its hands.
The monument memorializes 16 workers killed during protests against price increases at the Szczecin Shipyard on December 17, 1970.
Four granite plates surrounding the angel display inscriptions and names of those who died during the December 1970 events in Szczecin.
