    Polana Langiewicza is commonly regarded as a campsite for insurgent troops led by General Marian Langiewicz during the January Uprising in 1863. However, there is no evidence that the insurgents were stationed in this exact place and that General Langiewicz himself stayed there. This place was indicated by Capt. Wojdacki, writing that "there was a spring and an oak grew, where General Marjan Langiewicz sat as if on a stool".

    The place was marked for the first time in 1925, during the convention of veterans of the 1863 uprising. Then, after the holy mass in Wąchock, the participants of the reunion went to the clearing, where a commemorative plaque was consecrated. The plaque was made in a foundry in Skarżysko, owned by Kazimierz Jan Witwicki, son of Jan Witwicki, an insurgent. At that time, the plaque was hung on an oak - today it is hung on a pine.
