    At the Congress of Vienna in 1815, new borders were established between the partitions. At that time, the Tanew between Rybnica and Paary and Rebizants became a border river, separating the lands of the Russian partition (Kingdom of Poland) from the Austrian partition (Galicia).

    Patriotic activists and smugglers crossing the border used an illegal route through Tanew to Rebizants located on the Galician side. The border was heavily guarded, especially on the Russian side. Only the ordynat foresters had free access to the forest between this road and the border, who smuggled banned publications and led independence activists through this route.

    In June 1901, Józef Piłsudski, who had escaped from the prison hospital in St. Petersburg, was led across the border along this route.
