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.
On pictures of Warsaw taken just after the war, it is clearly visible that very little remained of the city. The price paid by the Poles was extremely high in dead and wounded. Had the Russians, who were just outside the city, assisted them, the outcome could have been different. But "if's" don't count in history. The Poles can be very proud of their resistance and their courageous uprising, which is not even very well known elsewhere. Amazingly, it took until 1989 to reveal the monument to the heroes of the revolt.
