History
John Corvinus, son of King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary, in 1488–1490, was briefly the Duke of Głogów, a duchy founded in the course of the medieval fragmentation of Poland, before it passed to John I Albert from the Jagiellonian dynasty, future King of Poland.
In 1576, Poland elected the Hungarian nobleman Stephen Báthory as its king, who is regarded as one of Poland's greatest rulers, and a number of Hungarians came to the country with him.
The great Hungarian Renaissance poet Bálint Balassi spent parts of his life and wrote some of his poems in Poland.[2] There are memorials to him at his places of stay in Odrzykoń, Nowy Żmigród, Rymanów, Dębno, Braniewo and Kraków.[3]
In 1701 Hungarian conspirators Шаблон:Interlanguage link and Francis II Rákóczi fled to Poland, where they established contacts with the Polish Royal court and gained the support of several Polish magnates for the planned Hungarian uprising (Rákóczi's War of Independence) against Austria.Шаблон:Sfn In Poland, Bercsényi and Rákóczi received protection from the Austrians, who still tried to capture them through attempts of the Habsburg ambassador to Poland.Шаблон:Sfn After the Hungarian uprising broke out in 1703, an insurgent delegation went to Poland to find Rákóczi and ask him to lead the uprising.Шаблон:Sfn A meeting of the then insurgent leader Шаблон:Interlanguage link with Rákóczi and Bercsényi took place in May 1703 in Brzeżany, Poland, and it also was the place where Rákóczi and Bercsényi signed a proclamation, which called on Hungarians to fight for independence.Шаблон:Sfn Rákóczi and Bercsényi then went to Hungary.Шаблон:Sfn After the fall of the uprising in 1711, 3,000 Kurucs, including Rákóczi himself, took refuge in Poland.Шаблон:Sfn Rákóczi then lived in Jarosław and Gdańsk before leaving Poland in 1712 for France, where he unsuccessfully sought support for Hungarian national liberation efforts.Шаблон:Sfn A number of Hungarians remained in Poland, including painter Ádám Mányoki, who became a court painter of Polish Kings, and Ádám Jávorka, who became a general of the Polish Army.
Several hundred Hungarian volunteers fought alongside Poles in the January Uprising in the Russian Partition of Poland in 1863–1864.[4] According to the 1897 census, the largest Hungarian populations in the Russian Partition of Poland, lived in Warsaw (68), Częstochowa (29) and Nasielsk (23), with very few in other locations.[5][6]
After the restoration of independent Poland, dozens of Hungarians joined the Polish Army during the Polish–Soviet War, including lieutenant colonel Artur Buol, who co-organized artillery batteries, fought in several battles, and eventually died of wounds.[7] A monument of Buol was unveiled in Baranowicze in 1930.[7]
According to the 1921 Polish census, the largest Hungarian populations lived in the cities of Lwów and Warsaw with 45 and 38 people, respectively.[8][9]
