Profaning a monument[1] (Polish: Znieważenie pomnika), also translated as insulting a monument,[2][3] is criminalized by Article 261 of the Criminal Code of Poland, punishable by a fine or restriction of liberty. The law makes no distinction between worthy and unworthy objects of commemoration. A relatively small number of people have been charged under the law, of whom not all were convicted.
