Summary/Abstract: Fr. Ludwik Ruczka (1814−1896), The January Upraising 1863, Siberian exiles, Kolbuszowa, SiberiaThe January Uprising of 1863-1864 ended in defeat. As a result, many of its participants were sent to Siberia. Among them were the inhabitants of the Austrian partition and other parts of the Austrian Empire. Fr. Ludwik Ruczka took care of their release. His tireless actions, conducted between 1863 and 1875, led to the release of several hundred insurgents from Galicia. Thanks to them they could return to their places of residence, to their families, becoming living witnesses of past events. For the rest of their lives they remembered who had saved them. Fr. Ludwik Ruczka, in spite of his numerous pastoral, social and political duties, became involved in this assistance, thereby enrolling permanently on the pages of history.
