Monument to the Deed of Poles

Impressive monument with three eagles.

The park is really pretty and well laid out. You can easily get to/from Szczecin by bike without having to use the main roads.

It was unveiled in 1979. It was funded by contributions from residents and the A. Warski Szczecin Shipyard. Its creator is the sculptor Gustaw Zemła, who collaborated on its creation with the sculptor E. Kozak. The monument refers to three generations of Szczecin residents whose memory was to be perpetuated by erecting the monument. The first of them is the generation of Szczecin's Polish community from the turn of the 19th and 20th century who lived abroad until the war. The second generation are the inhabitants of Szczecin who contributed to the reconstruction of the city after the war. The third eagle is a symbol of the last generation that was involved in the development of industry, health care, culture, communication and modern construction. The plinth was made by J.W. Piskorz-Nałęcki. Its total height is 22.5 m. The eagles depicted in the monument weigh a total of 60 tons, while the entire structure weighs as much as 150 tons.
