INDEPENDENCE CONCERT – WESTERPLATTE EDITION

Independence concert - Westerplatte edition

On 1st September 2016 on Westerplatte a unique cultural event took place – Independence Concert: Westerplatte Edition. This cultural event will become an annual, artistic tribute to those who lost their lives while defending their homeland from the aggressors, and will tell the story of the heroic struggle of Poles for freedom and independence. The songs speak about the bravery of Polish soldiers, the horrors of war, and the fate of ordinary people caught in violent times. The new versions of classic songs appeal especially to young people. The whole event is an allegory of patriotism and promotes values relating to peace and mutual understanding.

The concert was organized with participation of Poland's Heritage Foundation, Muzeum Westerplatte, and Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. Be sure not to miss the upcoming edition on 1st September 2017. See you there!
