Battle of Opatów (1863)
The First Battle of Opatów, one of many clashes of the January Uprising, took place on November 25, 1863, in the town of Opatów, which at that time belonged to Russian-controlled Congress Poland. A party of 210 Polish rebels, commanded by Józef Hauke-Bosak, managed to temporarily capture the town, which was defended by a 180-strong garrison of the Imperial Russian Army.
