Besides providing profiles of monuments and other heritage objects, MonumentApp is also a social platform, allowing users to upload their own photos, share their discoveries with family and friends, and create maps and trip plans, NIKZ said. 

The app features a  special sight-seeing route dedicated to the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, to mark its upcoming 79th anniversary, according to officials.

MonumentApp is available free on Android and iOS.
