    The surrounding fields and forests were the backdrop for bloody fights at the beginning of the September Campaign. On September 2, 1939, in the Fortified Section "Mikołów", fierce battles were taking place between the German VIII Silesian Army Corps attacking Polish forces and the units of the "Śląsk" Operational Group from the "Kraków" Army, which were defending themselves here. Today it is hard to imagine the events that took place here 78 years ago. The soldiers of the 73rd infantry regiment showed great fortitude, patriotism and commitment to freedom. They defended themselves in the sense of deep duty and honor, fought for these values, gave their motherland what is most precious, their own lives.
