On October 9, 2021 at the Vistula boulevards in Warsaw the ceremony of unveiling of the monument to the Presidents of Great Warsaw took place. The construction of the Monument was one of the most important projects of our strategic partner – the Kulski Foundation for Polish-American relations.

The monument commemorates two figures of great merit for the development of the Polish capital – Stefan Starzyński and Julian Spitosław Kulski, the Presidents of Warsaw. It is a tribute to their services for the civilian population during World War II and contribution to the development of the capital’s infrastructure in the interwar period. The inspiration for the sculptor Paweł Pietrusiński was the historical photo showing the Presidents Starzyński and Kulski visiting the area of the then built Vistula boulevards.

The initiative and overall idea of the construction of the monument to the Presidents of Great Warsaw belong to the recently deceased prof. Julian Eugeniusz Kulski – Warsaw insurgent, Colonel of the Polish Army, professor of architecture, long-time associate of the World Bank and the founder of the Kulski Foundation.
