Summary/Abstract: The Tatars – Mongols invasion of Poland in 1241 left fundamental mark on the Polish and European’s pages of history. The heated researchers’ discussions and public debates cause difficulties in making unambiguous reenactment oft he historical events from 1241. Reliable historical sources are fundamentally concentrated on the battle’s fact and Henryk Pobożny’s death. However, carrying out the battle’s circumstances and context, we may see the vision of the prince as a medieval hero, a defender of the faith and even a martyr.
