Hi daneil c
If the part Goliath you are talking about is the Tracks embeded in a wall in the old town that was actually used during the suppresion of the Warsaw Uprising (1staug-2oct 44) by german forces.

The germans used the Goliath on all fronts during the war. It was a small ,unmanned tracked vehicle,lighty armoured that was controlled by remote cable and operated from a safe distance by german combat engineers. The goliath could,aswell as an explosive charge , be fitted with a camera for reconasince but i dont think this was a feature widley used(as a new recruit was cheaper to replace.....).

yes, that is the one i'm talking about. but i ment, is there a spesific resone why it is there? was a building destroyed by it neer by? the catedral that is neer, maybe?

thanks

As far as i know daniel a small section of St John's cathedral was destroyed by this particular Goliath that the tracks come from. This seems to be the case from the photo i have of the track section and memorial plaque,no specific date is given though but Im sure with the exstensive research on the uprising more can be found out.

thanks!
