Summary/Abstract: In 1949, in Kwidzyn, a group of school youth created an underground organisation. It started with simple propaganda activities and ended with expropriation actions. Contact was also established with a partisan group operating in the Grudziądz area. The organisa- tion, operating for six months, was part of the broad phenomenon of creating youth struc- tures within the independence underground. Its characteristics open the research ques- tion of what else needs to be done to determine the scale and type of this phenomenon.
