The Cwil Mound, also known as the Cwil Mountain, is a mound in Roman Kozłowski Park, in the city of Warsaw, Poland, within the district of Ursynów. It was built in 1976, and with the height of 118 m, it is the tallest landform in the disctict.
The artificial mount was built in 1976, during the construction of the neighbourhood of Jary. It was made from the dirt excavated during local construction, and damages building materials that were thrown away into the pile. It was proposed by engineer Henryk Cwil (1920–1990), after whom it was named. In 1977 was opened the Roman Kozłowski Park, centred arouns the mound.[1] [2]
