The Monument to the Polish Endeavor (Polish: Pomnik Czynu Polaków), also known as the Monument of the Three Eagles (Polish: Pomnik Trzech Orłów), and the Eagles' Nest (Polish: Gniazdo Orłów), is a monument in the city of Szczecin, Poland, located at the Bright Meadows Square, at the boundary with the Jan Kasprowicz Park. It was designed by Gustaw Zemła, and unveiled in 1979.The monument consists of three bronze sculptures of eagles with spread wings, each placed on a steel column with a square base. The three birds are meant to symbolize three generations of Polish inhabitants of the city. That includes the Polish people who lived in the city prior to the end of the Second World War in 1945, people who moved to, and rebuilt the city after the end of the conflict, in place of mostly German population, who left or were deported, and the children of the new population, who further developed the city.
