The little park just south of Jerzego Ziętka Roundabout. Much of Silesia remained part of Germany even after World War I and Polish independence, but there were uprisings by ethnic Poles in 1919, 1920 and 1921 - the three wings symbolize these, and the battle sites are etched on the sides. But thus the map remained until World War II, when the German and Polish parts suffered equal horrors, and afterwards the entire region joined Poland.
The Silesian Insurgents Memorial in Katowice, southern Poland, it is a monument to those who took part in the three Silesian Uprisings of 1919, 1920 and 1921. These uprisings aimed to make the region of Upper Silesia part of the newly independent Polish state. It is located nearby to the Spodek.
