Immediately after the cessation of fighting at Monte Cassino, the Polish government in Exile (in London) created the Monte Cassino campaign cross to commemorate the Polish part in the capture of the strategic point.
Odmah nakon prekida borbi kod Monte Cassina poljska vlada u izbjeglištvu (u Londonu) ustanovila je Komemorativni križ Monte Cassina u znak sjećanja na sudioništvo Poljaka u osvajanju ove strateške točke.
