Logo for a Historic Monument ("pomnik historii") in Poland

Historic Monument (Polish : pomnik historii) is one of several categories of objects of cultural heritage (in the singular, zabytek ) in Poland. [1]

To be recognized as a Polish historic monument, an object must be declared such by the President of Poland. [1] The term "historic monument" was introduced into Polish law in 1990, and the first Historic Monuments were declared by President Lech Wałęsa in 1994. [2]
