230 years ago today, the Great Sejm of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth adopted the Constitution of 3 May, one of the oldest constitutions in the 🌍. The document was very progressive for its time, designed to reform the Polish state by ensuring more freedom and equality.

One of WWII’s greatest heroes was executed by Communists 72 years ago today. #witoldpilecki volunteered for underground mission to Auschwitz in 1940 to witness Nazi crimes, then fought Poland's Communist takeover only to be caught, shot and story hidden. Please help share it now

A wreath and a candle placed at the Wall of Death in the yard of Block 11 commemorated the 77th anniversary of the escape of captain Witold Pilecki together with Edward Ciesielski and Jan Redzej from #Auschwitz.
26/27 April 1943 | Three Poles escaped #Auschwitz: Edward Ciesielski (12969), Witold Pilecki (4859) & Jan Redzej (5430). #Pilecki was one of the co-founders of military resistance inside the camp. After the escape, he wrote an elaborate report about German crimes in Auschwitz.
