    This granite monument in Głogów's Forest Park commemorates Polish and German victims of war, violence, and expulsion from 1939-1945, with inscriptions in both Polish and German languages. Originally erected in 1926 to honor Friedrich Ebert, the first president of the Weimar Republic, it was repurposed after lengthy negotiations between Głogów city authorities and the Glogauer Heimatbund in the 1990s.

    The monument was ceremonially unveiled in its current form on May 27, 2000, and consists of two vertical granite blocks topped by a horizontal block.

    The monument underwent three different purposes throughout its history - first honoring a German president, then being renamed by Nazi authorities in 1933, and finally serving as a memorial to war victims from both nations after joint Polish-German initiative in the 1990s.
