Where have you been?

My mother and nephew were both impressed by the historic value intrinsic in everything. On almost every corner there was something dating back to at least the second World War if not much, much farther. In this picture, for example, we can see the Fighting Poland symbol painted on the building.


These markers litter the city and indicate where groups of people, sometimes very large groups of people, were executed by Germans or Russians during WWII. This one commemorates the murder of 30 people on September 2nd, 1944. They were killed by Germans.


This marker, by contrast, signifies something a bit more pleasant. This says that the street, Krzywe Koło, was established in 1443 - fifty years before America was even "discovered"!
