The action “Light the torch of remembrance on the graves of the soldiers of the Home Army”

The National Army Museum in Krakow, the Krakow Flag of the ZHP, the Małopolska District of the ZHR and the 11th Małopolska Territorial Defense Brigade invite you to participate in this year's action “Light a candle on the graves of the soldiers of the Home Army”.

In November - the month of national memory - we invite you to join the action of caring for the graves of the soldiers of the Home Army. We call for the graves of the Akovites to be found in the cemeteries of Cracow and other places, to surround them with their care and to light a candle. On the Feast of All Saints and in the month of November, may the light of remembrance not be lacking in any of them.

Let us also remember other members of the Polish Underground State and independence activists from the period of the Second World War - employees of the Government Delegation, scouts of the Gray Sergeants, soldiers of the Peasant Battalions and other armed formations, as well as members of the post-war anti-communist underground.

Find the grave, put it in order, light a torch, and send the photo to us at:. We will publish the photos on our facebook profile and website.
