About the battle

The siege of Zbarazh (Ukrainian: Облога Збаража, Битва під Збаражем, Polish: Oblężenie Zbaraża, Bitwa pod Zbarażem; 10 July – 22 August 1649) was a part of the Khmelnytsky Uprising, and occurred in and around the site of the present-day city of Zbarazh in Ukraine. The Cossack Hetmanate and Crimean Khanate combined forces against the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth in a siege that lasted seven weeks.

The Polish–Lithuanian forces remained under siege in Zbarazh Castle until after the conclusion of the nearby Battle of Zboriv on 15–16 August 1649 and the Treaty of Zboriv two days later.
