The Cross of the Warsaw Uprising (Polish: Krzyż Powstania Warszawskiego) was an informal award used by soldiers of the Polish resistance during the Warsaw Uprising of 1944.^[1] It consisted of a captured German Iron Cross, with a pre-war 1 złoty coin pinned to it in the centre over the swastika; the reverse side of the coin, showing the Polish eagle, was displayed, to which was added a kotwica and the inscription "1944".^[2]^[3] It was awarded for killing an SS officer in combat and made during quieter periods in between the fighting.^[1]^[2]

This cross should not be confused with the Warsaw Uprising Cross (Warszawski Krzyż Powstańczy) established in 1981.

Niezależnie od nagradzania zasług bojowych powstańców warszawskich odznaczeniami państwowymi wprowadzono tą nieformalną odznakę "Za zabicie w walce oficera SS". Odznaka ta była wykonywana przez powstańców w przerwach między walkami poprzez wykorzystywanie zdobycznych niemieckich odznak Krzyża Żelaznego, na rewers którego nakładano polską monetę 1zł. wz. 1929 r. z wytłoczonym na piersi orła znakiem Polski Walczącej i napisem 1944.
