Summary/Abstract: At the turn of 1806/07, French troops fought a series of battles and skirmishes with the Russian army in northern Mazovia. Wounded and sick soldiers were taken to field hospitals, often organized just outside the area of military operations. Determining the locations of such institutions allows for the verifi cation of the burial sites and, at the same time, for the commemoration of both the soldiers who died there and the staff employed.
