gmina Wiszniewice.
Gmina Cyców is a rural gmina (commune) in Łęczna County, Lublin Voivodship,
in eastern Poland. Its seat is the village of Cyców, which lies approximately
19 kilometres (12 mi) east of Łęczna and 41 km (25 mi) east of the regional

An agricultural commune; land under cultivation - 80%; forests - 8%.

The most important event in the history of Cyców was the battle
on August 16, 1920. The 7th Regiment of Cavalry (7 Pułk Ułanów Lubelskich)
led by Major
Zygmunt Piasecki, in a brilliant charge, annihilated the Dotola Infantry
Brigade of Mozyr Group of Marshal Tuhhachevsky's Red Army doing the
major damage to it on the eve of the pivotal Battle of Warsaw, which saved
Poland and Europe from the Bolshevik deluge.
For the uncommon bravery, skill and effectiveness, the 7th Regiment
was awarded the highest Polish military decoration - The Cross of Virtuti
Militari - and is mentioned by name at the Tomb of Unknown Soldier in Warsaw.

Cyców commune new flag
There is an update necessary for Cyców flag and Arms.
Acting on the suggestion of the Heraldic Commission, Mr. Rafał Duszyca,
the designer of the symbols of the commune, changed the primary color from
blue to red on May 19, 2009.
The rendition of the sabres was also modified slightly (simplified).
The new design was re-submitted by the commune's council for the approval
of the commission and ministry.
That process will take a while as they are working rather slow. (And
it's raining there).
The new design is described and shown here.

Cyców commune old flag
![[Cyców flag]](../images/p/pl-lu-cc.gif)
image by Chrystian Kretowicz, 9 Dec 2008
proposal adopted 2008; design: Rafał Duszyca
Arms and flag were submitted in late 2008 for opinion and approval of
the Heraldic Commission and the Ministry of Interior Affairs and Administration.
Arms, designed by Mr.Rafał Duszyca, show on the blue shield two crossed
cavalry sabres (sabers).
Flag repeats that motif but between two golden vertical stripes.
Flag is supposed to be 5:8, but the image at the municipal
site (herb, flaga i pieczecie Gminy) is out of proportion.
