Summary/Abstract: The topic of wagons sent by Polish cities on military expeditions in the early modern period is quite widely acknowledged. Historians have so far examined issues regarding their equipment and mobility. However, the budgets for expeditions of this type remained unstudied. The surviving sources make it possible to reconstruct in great detail the journey of war wagons from Kazimierz to Lviv under attack by the Tatars in 1590. The article reconstructs the route of the 54-day expedition and its day-by-day costs, taking into account salaries, repairs and feeding horses.
