The photograph shows the memorial monument dedicated to German resistance against the Nazi regime, located within the Wolfsschanze complex. The large granite boulder bears a bronze plaque with inscriptions in German and Polish commemorating the courage of those who opposed Hitler. In the background, the remains of one of the complex's bunkers are visible. The memorial honors not only the participants in Operation Valkyrie of July 20, 1944, but all those within Germany who tried to oppose the National Socialist regime, often paying with their lives for their courage.
