Battle of Łowczówek was a battle during World War I, fought on 22–25 December 1914 at Łowczówek, between the 1st Brigade of the Polish Legions, fighting for Austria-Hungary, and troops of Imperial Russia. The 1st Brigade was supported by some units of Hungarian infantry and Austrian artillery. The Austro-Hungarian-Polish forces held back the developing Russian offensive in the region, which allowed the bulk of the Austro-Hungarian army to avoid being surrounded and to withdraw, but had to yield their positions in the face of continued Russian attacks and the danger of being encircled itself.
