The Iłża Forests were the site of many skirmishes and uprising events. Many of them took place along the ancient communication route, the so-called Ostrowiecki Gościniec, between the Barracks and Piotrowe Pole.

Perhaps the place commemorates the death or burial place of Sergeant Zacharczeńka, who died in this region. A mention of this event can be found in the publication "Battles and skirmishes 1863-1864 based on printed and handwritten materials of the National Museum in Rapperswil", ed. S. Zieliśki, Rapperswil 1913.

While standing in the Iłża Barracks, Czachowski sent Sergeant Zacharczeńka, who had come to the Polish ranks from the Caucasus, along with one cavalryman on a raid into the wilderness, towards Lubinie. Zakharchenko, attacked on a winding forest path by dragoons and Cossacks, when the cavalryman following him managed to escape in time, fought bravely, and after killing several Muscovites, he fell.
