Attractions and Places To See around Zbójna - Top 20

An interesting place to visit. I recommend it.

The project was designed by architect Marek Pęza. The new facility was officially unveiled on September 20, 2015, during the celebration of the Regiment's holiday. Its cost was 70 thousand złoty. The construction was financed entirely by donations from companies and individuals. The 5th Zasław Uhlan Regiment was stationed in Wojciechowice near Ostrołęka in the years 1921-1939. It fought the September Campaign as part of the Podlasie Cavalry Brigade.

The monument in Nowogród commemorates the battle of Polish soldiers with Germans fought on September 7–10, 1939, when 800 Polish soldiers supported by civilians from the city and surrounding areas fought a German division of several thousand. The tank in Nowogród obviously did not take part in this battle. https://proszewycieczki.wordpress.com/2023/09/10/nowogrod-czolg-pomnik/

The history of this tank is very interesting and due to the fact that its condition is good, as indicated by the small number of layers of paint, which in turn allows you to read the factory number (412815) and trace its history. T-34-85 manufactured in December 1944 in plant no. 112. It turns out that this is a tank delivered in the second tranche (January/February 1945) to the 4th Armored Brigade of the 1st Armored Corps. This means that it is a veteran of the battles of Bautzen (April 21–30, 1945) - one of the few tanks of the 4th Brigade that survived these battles. https://zlomzy.pl/pl/15_fotorelacje/379_inne/949_czolg-w-nowogrodzie-co-o-nim-wiemy-foto-.html

There are very few monuments like this anymore. A Soviet tank from World War II, a T-34, stands in Nowogród (Podlaskie Province) and looks quite, quite. The tank was erected on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Polish People's Republic and unveiled on September 14, 1974. The commemorative plaque next to it reads "Glory to the heroes who died in the fight against German fascism for the freedom of the Łomża Region." It is worth emphasizing that we are currently celebrating and commemorating the day when the Polish People's Republic ended. However, this controversial monument still stands and attracts tourists.

There is a wide approach to the tank, from the top there is a panorama of the Narew River valley and the bridge and shelter from 1939

On the hill above the Narew River there is a monument-tank T-34. On the plaque there is an inscription: "Glory to the heroes who died in the fight against German fascism". The monument was erected on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the People's Republic of Poland and unveiled on September 14, 1974. The whole place is very picturesque, the tank is visible after crossing the bridge over the Narew, above the bunker of the defenders of Nowogród from 1939.

The Nowogród section was part of the defense line stretching along the Narew and Biebrza rivers, the responsibility of maintaining which was entrusted to the Independent Operational Group "Narew" (hereinafter SGO Narew) under the command of Brig. Gen. Czesław Młot-Fijałkowski. The defense belt of SGO Narew was divided into the sections: "Ostrołęka", "Nowogród", "Łomża", "Wizna", "Osowiec" and "Augustów". Nowogród was located on one of the expected main directions of the enemy's attack, led from East Prussia. The task of the "Nowogród" section was to defend the crossing in Nowogród and to defend along the line of the Narew river from the town of Szablak - Mątwica (on the eastern flank) to the line between the settlements of Parzychy and Sulimy (on the western flank). In specific terrain conditions, a tactical and defensive plan had to be prepared, which required: http://hauba.pl/odcinek-nowogrod/
