The Maria Skłodowska-Curie Monument on the Warsaw Escarpment is a sculpture by Bronisław Krzysztof, unveiled on June 4, 2014 at the end of Kościelna Street. It commemorates the two-time Nobel Prize winner and symbolizes Polish-French friendship. The figure of the scientist is presented in a symbolic way, looking towards the Vistula, referring to her youthful years spent in Warsaw. The location of the monument is not accidental - it is located near Freta Street, where Skłodowska-Curie was born. The monument is a tribute to her scientific achievements and an inspiration for future generations.
