The author substantially extends C. Kuratowski's celebrated theorem [Fundam. Math. 15, 271--283 (1930; JFM 56.1141.03)] which characterizes the graphs that are embeddable in the plane. Let \(M\) be a 2-connected, locally connected, compact topological space. (Here 2-connected means that \(M\) remains connected after the deletion of any element.) Then the space \(M\) is homeomorphic to a subset of the 2-sphere (i.e. embeddable to the plane) if and only if it is metrizable and contains none of the Kuratowski graphs \(K_5\) and \(K_{3,3}\).
