Memorial Polish 1st Infantry Division "Tadeusza Kosciuszki"

This memorial commemorates the desperate (though brave) attempt by the Polish 1st Division "Tadeusza Kosciuszki" to give aid to the Warsaw insurgents.

In September 1944, catastrophic landings took place on the west bank of the Vistula river with the result of more than two thousand dead, missing and wounded on the side of the liberators.
