Polish Thermopylae is a poetic term used for several battles in the history of Poland, which were fought by Polish soldiers against superior enemy forces, following the example of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae. However, they did not surrender to the superior strength of the enemy, they fought to the end, regardless of the fact that this end also means the end of their lives. Often their heroism was not supposed to tip the scales of victory, but only to delay the movement of the enemy troops, thus giving the remaining units a chance to reform or set up another line of defense. Let's check how the heroic soldiers of the September Campaign are honored today and what remains of the battles that have become legendary.
