Monument dedicated to the Soldiers of the Home Army
After the end of World War II, many soldiers of the Home Army settled in Sopot. Thanks to their involvement, the current monument was erected. The official establishment of the monument began with the words: "This happened in Sopot in the year of Our Lord 1998, when Pope John Paul II, who came from a Polish family, sat on the Chair of Peter and exercised his authority. Let this monument, erected on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of regaining independence, be a testament to the memory of the combatant community and the residents of Sopot, concerning the unprecedented effort of the Polish nation in the struggle for freedom. Let this monument symbolize patriotism and love for the independent Homeland, both for present and future generations." The initiative to build the monument was undertaken by members of the Sopot branch of the World Association of Home Army Soldiers. The sculptural project was entrusted to Tadeusz Markiewicz. On the concrete pedestal in the shape of a truncated pyramid rests a flag, transitioning into a golden eagle with a crown, its wings raised upwards.
