Monument of Polish Underground State and Home Army [Pomnik Polskiego Państwa Podziemnego i Armii Krajowej ]

Get to Wieniawski Park to view one of Poznań’s newer monuments, a cracking installation dedicated to the wartime Polish Underground State and Home Army. Set at the intersection of al. Niepodległości and ul. Libelta, and the work of Gdańsk artist Mariusz Kulpa, this really takes some deciphering. Unveiled on September 26, 2007, to coincide with the 68th anniversary of the founding of the Polish underground movement, this piece consists of numerous tablets commemorating both individuals and organizations, as well as six stone eagles seemingly suspended in mid-air – they’re there to represent Poland’s flight and fight for independence. Truly a stunning work, and even more so in the evening when illuminated by the dim red flicker of the candles placed in tribute.
