One of the most iconic examples of neon from communist-era Poland is the giant neon sign adorning the entrance of the Palace of Culture and Science (Pałac Kultury i Nauki) in the capital city of Warsaw. This neon sign dates back to the 1970s (construction finished on the building in 1955) and was renovated in late 2015.
