Silesian Insurgents' Monument in Katowice

Monument to the Silesian Insurgents in Katowice (Śl. Dynkmal Ślůnskich Insurgents) - a monument commemorating three armed uprisings of the Silesian population against the German authorities, aimed at obtaining the annexation of Upper Silesia to Poland.
The monument was unveiled on September 1, 1967. The authors of the project were the sculptor prof. Gustaw Zemła and architect Wojciech Zabłocki. The steel structure was cast at the Gliwice Technical Devices Plant. It was built on the site of a cemetery of Red Army soldiers whose graves were exhumed and moved to Tadeusz Kościuszko Park.
The monument has the form of three eagle wings symbolizing the three Silesian Uprisings of 1919–1921. Financing the construction of such an impressive monument was problematic due to its high cost. The then voivode, General Jerzy Ziętek, consistently and patiently sought funding for this project in the capital. Ultimately, it was funded by the society of Warsaw as a gift to the society of Upper Silesia. It is one of the symbols of Katowice.
