One of a series of six benches-monuments to Jan Karski located in Warsaw's Muranów district, on the square next to the Museum of the History of Polish Jews, near the first monument to the Heroes of the Ghetto. The monument was designed by Karol Badyna. It commemorates Jan Karski, a courier of the authorities of the Polish Underground State, who was one of the first to inform the world about the extermination of Jews in occupied Poland.

On the side of the monument there is an inscription:
"Jan Karski (Kozielewski) 1914–2000 emissary of the authorities of the Polish Underground State
professor at Georgetown University in Washington "Righteous Among the Nations"
decorated with the Order of the White Eagle and nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize
a man who wanted to stop the Holocaust
"Warsaw 2012"
