It was in Gogolin that Hitler gave the order to bomb Warsaw (every morning he left Gogolin in his three-axle Mercedes to nearby Ligota Dolna, from where he flew to watch the progress of aggression against Poland). It was also in Gogolin that Hitler learned about the USSR's aggression against Poland on September 17, 1939, of which Joachim von Ribbentrop informed him personally.
