The Battle of Lututow was a clash between Polish rebel forces and units of the Imperial Russian Army. It took place during the January Uprising, on June 15, 1863, near the village of Lututow, which at that time belonged to Russian-controlled Congress Poland. Rebel forces, commanded by Antoni Korotynski were defeated by the Russians. Polish forces numbered some 120 kosynierzy, and the battle resulted in complete annihilation of Korotynski's unit, as 64 rebels were killed and 46 were wounded.
Bodies of the rebels were buried in a mass grave at the local cemetery. The location of the battle is marked by two large crosses and boulders.
