This bronze statue of the general on a pedestal is located right next to the Charles de Gaulle roundabout, at the intersection of Nowy Świat street and Jerozolimskie avenue, in front of the Banking and Financial Centre of Warszawa. It is the only replica of the statue made in 2000 by Jean Cardot and placed on the Champs-Elysées.
The replica was inaugurated on 14 May 2005, in the presence of the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr Michel Barnier, his Polish counterpart, Mr Adam Rotfeld, the mayor of Warszawa, Mr Lech Kaczyński, and the president of the Polish section of the Mutual Aid Society of Members of the Legion of Honour, Mr Jean Caillot.
The design of the monument is the work of the architect Andrzej Kiciński. The statue was cast by a Polish artist, Marek Zebrowski, from the original mould lent by the author. The project was financed by French companies and institutions established in Poland, including the Polish section of the Mutual Aid Society of Members of the Legion of Honour, the instigator of the project. The town hall of Warszawa and the Banking and Financial Centre helped by making the land available. Every 18 June, a ceremony commemorating the general's appeal is held at the foot of the statue.
