Thanks to the initiative of the Foundation for the Preservation of Jewish Heritage in Poland, acting also on behalf of the Jewish Religious Community in Warsaw, the mound of Mordechai Anielewicz, located at Mila St. in Warsaw, was entered in the Monument Register.
The mound was built of debris of the tenement house at Mila St. 18 (today the corner of Mila and Dubois). Hidden in its inside are the remains of a bunker - the common grave of Mordechai Anielewicz and other ghetto fighters who, surrounded by the Nazis, have committed suicide.
The resting place of the leaders of the ghetto resistance movement was commemorated shortly after the war on the initiative of the Warsaw Jewish Community.
