Anielewicz Bunker
Tomb Warsaw Ghetto bunker site commemorating Jewish resistance
A wartime bunker in Warsaw linked to the 1943 Ghetto Uprising and Jewish resistance; visitors come to study Holocaust history and see memorial plaques nearby.
The Anielewicz Bunker refers to the wartime bunker at 18 Miła Street in Warsaw’s Muranów district that served as a command post for the Jewish Fighting Organization during the 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. The bunker is closely associated with Mordechai Anielewicz, the uprising’s leader.

The site is in central Warsaw’s Muranów neighborhood, an area that was the prewar Warsaw Ghetto and is now a district of the city with several related memorials and museums nearby.
- Historical significance: The site marks the location where the Jewish Fighting Organization set up a command post and where its leader, Mordechai Anielewicz, is believed to have died during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in 1943.
