On the eastern side of the Saxon Garden, in the part that survived the Saxon Palace after World War II, lies the Tomb of the Unknown Polish Corps - in memory of the soldiers who fell in the battles for Polish independence and their names and / or burial places are unknown. The place looks like a small church with a "The constant flame of fire" and a guard of honor of soldiers guarding it and giving military honor to the fallen. The honor guard exchange ceremony is held every day at 12:00.

Monument of Nicolaus Copernicus

Reviewed By Ula_and_Tom - Leszno, Poland

Really cool that even the great Kopernik is wearing a mask in the time of coronavirus. Very neat. No trash around it. Obviously there were lots of tourists but that's predictable since everyone wants a ????.

Pomnik Bohaterow Getta

Reviewed By RRaposoMiami - Miami, United States

Just outside the Polish Museum of Jewish history sits this powerful monument to the Polish Jews and the persecution and Germany's occupation during WWII. Its located in the area of the old Warsaw Jewish Ghetto, now a totally rebuilt area. There are two sides to the large wall structure and some other nearby pieces. The figures coming out of the wall are quite stirring. Don't miss this stop in Warsaw.

Reviewed By DominikL694 - Woking, United Kingdom

This is a monument to a child soldier, fighting in the 1944 Warsaw uprising. The monument is just s stone throw from the square, alongside the outer wall. Worth a visit as many children perished in the fighting

Monument to the Warsaw Uprising Fighters

Reviewed By israroz - Ra'anana, Israel

The impressive monument to the Warsaw Uprising in 1944 is located against the background of the green (and impressive in itself) structure of the Polish Supreme Court. Dedicated to the Polish freedom fighters who rebelled against the German occupier in 1944. The monument consists of 2 parts, one of which features a group of warriors on the barricades they are protecting. In the other part of the monument, located on the other side of the square, another group of warriors is seen descending into the sewers that served as hidden means of movement throughout Warsaw. An amazing and impressive monument NOT 2 B MISSED.

A very beautiful statue situated in a huge park, where you can stroll around, relax on a chair or on the grass, listen to Chopin's music when sitting on a bench. A very beautiful place to relax.

Tightrope Walker - sculpture

Reviewed By endrju_74 - Ipswich, United Kingdom

Quite amazing, how it balances just above the river for so many years. Unveiled on 1 may 2004, on the day Poland joined the EU - and this is to commmorate that fact, like Poles finally crossed the river, or least it seemed.... Best view from Jerzy Sulima-Kamiński bridge - that way you got all heritage buildings on Brda river embankment in the background. This sculpture is close associated with another sculpture in Bydgoszcz - Łuczniczka (te Archer woman) - both got same roman style shoes (Łuczniczka wears them, while Przechodzący got them on his shoulder), and the Walker carries an arrow, possibly released by Łuczniczka. The sculpture is right in the town centre - bridge opened for motorised trafic, so be careful. Car park just to the north of the bridge.
