"Art is to die for the Fatherland, but the greatest art is to live for it"

Stare Powązki is one of Warsaw's oldest necropolises, a magical place full of historic tombstones. It is the resting place of Poland's most outstanding figures. I invite you to a walk dedicated to people who sacrificed their lives for the Fatherland and left memories behind…

We meet on Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 11:00 in front of the Second Gate — St. Honorata, Powązkowska Street 1. The walk is planned to last about 1.5 hours with the possibility of running a few minutes longer.

During the walk we will learn:

Who is the forgotten poet of the Warsaw Uprising?
Where lies the first wounded participant of the Action at the Arsenal, and where are his comrades?
Who in a short moment swapped a "violin case" for a "Sten" and got on the nerves of the Germans?
Where lies the ace of Intelligence?
Who wanted the memory of many noble people to be preserved… about whom no one remembers?
Who organized false baptismal records, and who provided shelter and care for Jewish children?
Who organized a blood donation campaign for Jews in the Warsaw ghetto?
Which of the women was relentless?
Who was the last soldier from Felek's platoon?
Where lies one of the most famous singers of the Warsaw Uprising?
Who, through personal daring and courage, contributed to capturing objects occupied by the Germans in the area of Widok Street and Al. Jerozolimskie?
To whom do we owe many publications and books on the conspiracy and armed struggle?
Where lies the designer of the uprising vehicle "Kubuś"?
Who organized care for orphaned children?
Where lies the author of the most recognizable uprising photograph and what is that photograph?
Where can we find the Tomb of Fighting Women?
Where lies the organizer of the first women's mining patrols?
and many others...
