Monument to the Katyn Massacre

The monument to the Katyn slaughter is one of Poland's most popular tourist attractions. It's the place where the Soviet regime killed over 20,000 Poles, most of them Polish army commanders and were killed with a headshot.

In Wroclaw they remember this massacre by a statue with avenging angel looking at a woman holding a dead body with a bullet in his head.
