Stefan Żeromski Monument

Highlight • Monument

A monument to one of the most famous Polish writers of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, whom many called the "conscience of Polish literature". Yes, yes, I read about it in school, of course!

As for the monument itself, the likeness is great, and the place, wooded and green, is not bad at all.
