The Memorial to the Warsaw Uprising, Krasinski Square, Warsaw, Poland.


The Warsaw uprising monument was unveiled on Krasinski Square, a site of fierce fighting, on August 1, 1989. It was designed by Professor Wincenty Kucma and architect Jacek Budyn and erected with donated funds. More than 40,000 Polish insurgents and about 180,000 civilians were killed or wounded in the Warsaw Uprising. A large number of allied pilots flying air-drop missions were also killed. On the German side, an estimated 25,000 troops were killed, wounded or missing in action.
