Saviour Square is an urban square and roundabout in the centre of Warsaw, Poland, located at the junction of Marszałkowska Street, Mokotowska Street, Nowowiejska Street, and Wyzwolenia Avenue. Developed around 1768 as part of the series of streets and squares created under King Stanisław August Poniatowski, Saviour Square was designed by Johann Christian Schuch. It includes the Church of the Holiest Saviour, postwar buildings of the Marshal Residential District, and surviving historic tenements. During the Warsaw Uprising, the square saw heavy fighting and destruction. In the 2010s, it gained attention for Rainbow, an art installation made of artificial flowers, and became a popular social and cultural gathering place. This photograph, taken in 2022, shows an aerial view of Saviour Square from the west, with a Warsaw tram passing through the central roundabout and the Church of the Holiest Saviour on the right.Photograph credit: Emptywords
