Monument to Stanisław Werner, a hero fighting for freedom and independence of Poland from the Russian partition. He became famous in the execution of the death sentence on the head of the Radom Governorate, Colonel von Płotto. The attempt was successful, but Stanisław Werner was immediately arrested and imprisoned afterwards. Despite the interrogations, Stanisław did not release any other comrades involved in the attack, so there were no more arrests. By the judgment of the Tsarist Military Military Court, he was sentenced to death by shooting. The sentence was carried out in the Kapturski Forest at 7.00 a.m. on December 20, 1906. The family, despite requests, was refused to release the body. Stanisław's letter to his mother on the day before the execution of the sentence is very touching. He died at the age of 18. The symbolic grave is located in the cemetery at B. Limanowskiego Street in Radom. The monument was founded on the 80th anniversary of Stanisław's death by scouts from the Radom Unit. I heartily recommend the history and places of memory of our hero.
