National Day of Remembrance of Home Army Soldiers – Let's Honor the Heroes!

Every year, on February 14th, Poland observes the National Day of Remembrance of Home Army Soldiers. This important holiday, established by an act of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, aims to honor the steadfast heroes who fought for a free Homeland.

History and Significance of the Home Army

The date of the commemoration is not accidental. It marks the anniversary of the establishment of the Home Army in 1942 by General Władysław Sikorski, then Commander-in-Chief. The Home Army was created as a successor to earlier clandestine structures: the Service for Poland's Victory and the Union of Armed Struggle. It was the largest underground army in occupied Europe, symbolizing resistance and the fight for Poland's independence during World War II.

Local Commemorations in Brodnica

This year, on February 14, 2026, the memory of the Home Army Soldiers was also honored in Brodnica. Representatives of the Brodnica City Office, laying flowers on behalf of the mayor and the city's residents, paid tribute to the heroes at the Home Army monument. This monument is located on Sądowa Street in Brodnica, serving as a local place of remembrance and reflection on history.
