As has been customary, the people of Warsaw paid homage to the courageous strife of the city's inhabitants to shed away the Nazi occupant. There were official visits to the Monument of the Warsaw Rising at the Powązki Military cemetary, commemorative concerts, film screenings and even a bike ride along the historical route of insurgents' fights.
