A chapel but also a place of memory of the January insurgents

When Zygmunt Padlewski, one of the main instigators of the outbreak of the January Uprising and the commander of the uprising in the Płock Governorate, failed to capture Płock, he decided to group the insurgents in the White Forest. At the end of February, he arrived in the region of Długosiodło (Mazowieckie Voivodeship). Between Długosiodło and Przetycza and Goworów, he concentrated over a thousand insurgents.

The insurgents led by Władysław Cichorski pseud. "Zameczek" (Cichorski was not a military man, he was a geometer by profession). The commander, appointed a colonel by the National Government, expanded his unit in the Forest to approx. 1.2 thousand. people (after the lost battle of Siemiatycze it had 700 people) and formed three battalions. Initially, he harassed the Russian outposts with sorties. His unit clashed several times with individual Russian units, he also took part in attacks on government coffers - for example, on February 22, "Zameczek" confiscated money from the cash register of the tsar's salt warehouse in Wyszków, a few days later from the local magistrate, and then - twice - from the post office . The Russians could not ignore this and from Pułtusk they sent an army led by Major Golitsyn to the Forest to eliminate the insurgents. On the night of February 27/28, 1863, the Russians met the insurgents of "Zameczek" near Przetycza.

The battle lasted only about half an hour. The Poles took the initiative from the beginning, attacked the Russian infantry and, after a short fight, forced them to flee. As noted by "Zameczek" - it took place in a panic. Unfortunately, he couldn't pursue them himself because he didn't have a ride. So the insurgents collected only scattered rifles.
