Description
 
March 24, 1794 marked the beginning of the revolt against the Russians popularly known as the Kosciuszko Insurrection.  
It started when Kosciuszko swore a brief, but significant oath as the Commander-in-Chief of the National Armed Forces using the words: "I will not use the entrusted power for anybody's private oppression, but only for the protection of the entire borders, recovery of the national self-rule and for establishing general liberty." The oath was sworn on the Cracovian Market Square in broad daylight in the presence of the army, common people, mothers with children and youth - in the presence of Polish people, who were the symbolic source of all power.
