In Zwierzyniec (Lublin province), a stone commemorates the victory over locusts, which, according to the carved inscription, appeared in Roztocze on 26 August 1711. This date was inscribed during the renovation of the monument in the 21 st century, when the previous date - 27 August 1859 - was removed. However, both versions of the date are incorrect. The article presents the history of the monument based on previously unknown sources, identi fies the person who founded it, and describes the insect invasion and measures taken to destroy the locusts that, in reality, affected this area in 1860.
