BACK TO CALENDAR
22 August 1944

The insurgents capture the building of the so-called Small PAST (telephone substation) at Pius XI Street (currently Piękna Street).

 

In the Old Town the insurgents repulse an attack of German tanks and infantry on the barricades on Nalewki and Długa Streets, defending access to Krasińskich Square. In the evening, after heavy battles, the Germans take the ruined Arsenal. The rest of the insurgent crew leaves the building and goes to the nearby Simons Passage at the corner of Długa Street and Nalewki Street.

 

In the northern part of the Śródmieście, the insurgents repel the enemy’s attack on the Borman factory in Towarowa Street. German infantry attacks under cover of tanks from Małachowskiego Square at the exit of Traugutta and Mazowiecka Streets. The insurgents seize a German post in the "Cristal" restaurant at the corner of Aleje Jerozolimskie and Bracka, shelling the passage through Aleje. At about 2 a.m. the second attack on the Gdansk Station starts. It involves insurgent units from Żoliborz and Kampinos under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Mieczysław Niedzielski "Żywiciel". The assault from the direction of the Old Town is supported by the units under the command of Major Wacław Janaszek "Bolek".
