Funeral of Marshal Pilsudski

[Scout]

Thanks. Very interesting. I made a special point of visiting the Pilsudski crypt some years back.

BTW check this out - the Wawel burial of Lech Kaczynski after the 2010 airplane crash near Smolensk.

Hi Michal.

I knew that I also had some other photographs of Marshal Pilsudski's coffin, which I also hope that you like:

I hope that you like the photographs and find them useful

Best wishes

Andrzejku

These photos have opened my eyes. I have been to the tomb but at the time was not fully aware of Pilsudski's significance, although now I am much more clued up on this inspirational man. Have also been to the Warsaw Citadel where he was imprisoned. That was also very interesting.
