Inside the mound, urns were buried with soil from the Polish and American battlefields where Kościuszko fought.
Plaszow Concentration Camp
Plaszow forced labour camp was located 10 kilometres outside the city centre of Cracow. The camp of Plaszow was originally designed to be a work camp. However, like many other Nazi camps, shortages of food existed, prisoners, starved or were worked to death, or summarily shot for no reason. The camp was built on the site of two Jewish cemeteries and the Nazis used the tombstones as building materials.
Plaszow labour camp is featured in Schindler's List movie.
Memorial of Torn- Out Hearts
This memorial depicts five figures representing the five countries of Płaszów's victims, with heads bent under the weight of the massive stone block from which they are carved and a horizontal crack across their chests, symbolising their abruptly ended lives. The large Polish inscription across the back of the monument reads, “To the memory of the martyrs murdered by the Nazi perpetrators of genocide in the years 1943-45.”
Ghetto area
The main feature of the Ghetto Heroes Square is a monument which was erected in 2005 on the site of a former Jewish ghetto to commemorate the heroes and victims that lost their lives during the Nazi occupation.
