Juliusz Konstanty Ordon

Ordon distinguished himself as a commander of artillery in Fort 54 one of the redoubts in Wola during the storm of Warsaw by Russian Army on 6 September 1831.

In the last moments of its defence the redoubt was blown up by one of the defenders, who was mistakenly identified as Ordon.

He was immortalized in the poem of Adam Mickiewicz, Reduta Ordona (Ordon's Redoubt).

Around 1840 he joined the English Freemasonry, and in October 1847 was admitted to Polish national lodge in London.

After his suicide in Florence, his body was brought to Lviv (the Russian authorities did not allow for burial in the family tomb in the Evangelical-Augsburg cemetery in Warsaw).
