John Huss was defended on July 6, 1415 by the Polish leader (Pawel Wlodkowic) of the small Polish delegation which included Poland’s leading warrior, the famed Polish Knight “Zawisza Czarny” and the Polish Bishop Kurdwanowski who prayed and spoke to the Polish troops just before the great battle against an official order of Rome.
