A War Memorial to the Polish Army fallen soldiers and the residents of Jabłonna - Modlińska Str.
The monumental statue was erected in 1982, in honour of Polish Army soldiers and residents of Jabłonna, who were killed in action and murdered during World War II. The statue was designed by Stanisław Kulon, professor of the Academy of Fine Arts and Mieczysław Boris, sculptor - both the aurhors of a similar monument in Milanówek. Stanislaw Kulon is also the author of the famous 'Glory to Sappers Monument' in Warsaw.

The obelisk in Jabłonna stands in the square in memory of 'Alfa' and 'SkibA', two officer cadets of the Polish Home Army: Mieczysław Stępnowski and Stanislaw Felicki, both of whom were from Jabłonna. They were killed on June 17, 1943, during the shielding of a weapons airdropping operation in the area of Stanislawów. In recognition of their valour, they were posthumously promoted, by the supreme command of the Polish Home Army, to the rank of officers and decorated with the Silver Cross of the War Order of Virtuti Militari.
