Berlin Mem to Polish/Anti-Fascists (#0173)
The Memorial to Polish Soldiers and German Anti-Fascists. The following is just a summary of what is found on the Wikipedia page (link below). I could not find another source regarding this memorial.
The memorial was built in what was East Berlin in 1972 at a time of improving relations between Poland and East Germany; the monument was rededicated in 1995 after German reunification. The memorial is to both Polish soldiers who died in WWII and to the anti-Nazi resistance during the war.
When I visited I had first come to the park (Volkspark Friedrichshain) to visit another site; I found no signs directing me to the memorial. The memorial is described as ‘in the foot of a hill’, which is slightly odd-sounding since the hill is not a natural hills but rubble from the WWII bombings that were covered in dirt and over time have come to look natural.
The memorial has a history of being vandalized and the memorial itself was once defaced with neo-Nazi slogans. The Wikipedia page reports that the memorial is often used for skateboarding.
