Galician peasant uprising of 1846

The Galician peasant uprising of 1846, also known as the Galician Rabacja, Galician Slaughter, or the Szela Uprising (German: Galizischer Bauernaufstand; Polish: Rzeź galicyjska or Rabacja galicyjska), was a two-month uprising of impoverished Austrian Galician[a] peasants that led to the suppression of the szlachta (nobility) uprising (Kraków Uprising, it was an uprising of Poles against Austrian rule) and the massacre of szlachta in the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria, in the Austrian Partition zone, in early 1846. The uprising, which lasted from February to March, primarily affected the lands around the town of Tarnów.
