The Battle of Krzywosądz was one of the battles of the January Uprising. It took place in the village of Krzywosądz, Congress Poland, on February 19, 1863, when a poorly armed party of 500 Polish insurgents, under Ludwik Mieroslawski, clashed with a 1,000 strong unit of the Imperial Russian Army. After the battle, Mieroslawski with his men headed towards Radziejów, where he was joined with a unit of Kazimierz Mielecki. On February 21, Mieroslawski's forces lost another battle at Nowa Wies, and the Polish leader decided to give up his post, going to Paris.
