    The Podchorążych Boulder is an erratic boulder located in front of the headquarters of the Polish Geological Institute in Warsaw (ul. Rakowiecka 4) since 1959. It is a natural monument. It was discovered in 1938 during the construction of a collector at ul. Podchorążych. The boulder weighs about 30 tons, is 290 cm high and has a circumference of 850 cm. For many years it was the largest known erratic boulder in Warsaw, until larger boulders were discovered in 2011 and 2017.
