Visiting Warsaw is impossible without coming across World War II, and the monument to the heroes of the Warsaw Uprising in 1944 is one of the most telling reminders of the period.
The monument can be found at Krasinski Square, itself place of fierce fighting during the uprising. It consists of two groups of sculptures, one called "insurgents", depicting soldiers ready to fight, and the other is called "exodus", depicting soldiers and a priest overseeing one soldier disappearing into the entrance of a sewer - this allowed the Poles to reach the inner city through the sewer system. The monument struck me as not evoking sadness, but rather admiration for the men, women and children who took destiny into their own hands even though they faced a formidable enemy.
