2 Euro 2020. Germany. 50th anniversary of kneeling in Warsaw (A,D,F,G,J)

The coin is dedicated to the gesture of submission and repentance on the part of West German Chancellor Willy Brandt, who on December 7, 1970, during a visit to the Polish People’s Republic, visited the monument to the victims of the unsuccessful uprising in the Warsaw ghetto (April 19th – May 16th, 1943). After laying the wreath, Brandt, very suddenly and spontaneously, knelt down. He remained in this position for some time in silence, surrounded by a large group of officials and photographers.
