The Polish cavalry (Polish: jazda, kawaleria, konnica) can trace its origins back to the days of medieval cavalry knights. Poland is mostly a country of flatlands and fields and mounted forces operate well in this environment. The knights and heavy cavalry gradually evolved into many different types of specialised mounted military formations, some of which heavily influenced western warfare and military science. This article details the evolution of Polish cavalry tactics, traditions and arms from the times of mounted knights and heavy winged hussars, through the times of light uhlans to mounted infantry equipped with ranged and mêlée weapons.

  • La Caballería polaca (en polaco: kawaleria) puede remontar sus orígenes a los días de los caballeros medievales montados. Polonia ha sido siempre un país de tierras llanas, y los campos y las fuerzas montadas se manejaron bien en este ambiente. Los caballeros y la caballería pesada desarrollaron gradualmente diversos tipos de formaciones militares especializadas, algunas de las cuales influyeron fuertemente en las guerras occidentales y en la ciencia militar.

  • Les origines de la cavalerie polonaise (polonais : jazda, kawaleria, konnica) peuvent être retracées depuis les chevaliers montés du Moyen Âge. La Pologne étant un pays constitué de plaines et de champs, la cavalerie peut facilement y évoluer. L'art de la guerre des cavaliers et de la cavalerie lourde ont fortement influencé l'art de la guerre occidental. (fr)
  • Kawaleria polska, (daw.) jazda polska – rodzaj wojsk polskich złożony z jeźdźców, którzy przemieszczają się oraz walczą na koniu. (pl)
