The Monument to the Victims of the Wola Massacre in Warsaw has been destroyed. New information

The officer was asked if she knew what was spilled on the monument. “The information (available) probably indicates that it could have been coffee,” the officer replied.

The police officer also reported that measures are being taken against the woman under Article 261 of the Penal Code, which provides for offending a monument. This could result in restriction of freedom or a fine.

The monument to the victims of the Wola Massacre was unveiled on 27 November 2004, during the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising. It was designed by sculptor Ryszard Stryjecki (in cooperation with architect Olaf Chmielewski and sculptor Mieczysław Syposz). The monument is made of Finnish granite.

In 2008, the square located at the corner of ul. Leszno and al. “Solidarity”, where the monument is located, was named Memory Square.

What was the Wola Massacre? The Germans’ crime during the Warsaw Uprising

The Wola Massacre took place from 5 to 7 August 1944. The inhabitants of Warsaw, who were fighting against the occupiers, were driven from their homes and shot, locked in rooms where grenades were thrown. The wounded were liquidated. The genocide was commanded by SS-Gruppenführer Heinz Reinefarth, who subordinated among others the Special SS Regiment commanded by SS-Standartenführer Oskar Dirlewanger and a regiment of the SS brigade of the Russian People’s Liberation Army (RONA).
