Residents of Lwów gather in 1939 at Mickiewicz Square, secularized by the Soviets (from St. Mary’s Square) following the Battle of Lwów and renamed for the Adam Mickiewicz column that stands at its center. The Italian granite monument was carved by Antoni Popiel and erected in 1904. Reblogged from zolotoivek
