Mound of the Warsaw Uprising

This mound was formed by the debris of the old city of Warsaw, which was completely demolished in 1944 by the Germans. Today a Kotwica - symbol of the Polish underground army - stands on top of the hill, commemorating the citizens of Warsaw and the Polish soldiers perished between 1939 and 1944. Visitors may enjoy the impressive Warsaw panorama from here.

This plaque commemorates the resistance commander; Lt. Col. Eugeniusz Ajewski.
