Henryk Sławik and József Antall Monument

Budapest District XI, Hungary · built 2017

The Henryk Sławik and József Antall Monument (Sławik Henryk és Antall József emlékműve, Pomnik Henryka Sławika i Józsefa Antalla) is a memorial sculpture in Budapest, Hungary, within the neighbourhood of Lágymányos in the district of Újbuda. Placed in the György Goldman Square, next to Józef Egry Street, it is dedicated to Polish and Hungarian politicians Henryk Sławik and József Antall, who, during the Second World War, helped save over 30,000 Polish refugees, including 5,000 Polish Jews in Budapest, by giving them false Polish passports with Catholic designation. They are depicted in form of two bronze statues sitting at a table while in the middle of a conversation. The monument was designed by Władysław Dudek and unveiled on 26 June 2017. A year prior, an identical sculpture was unveiled in Warsaw, Poland.
