General Jozef Bem was born in Tarnów, Poland (only 30 km south of me) and a hero in both Poland and Hungary who fought for independence. He was brought back to Poland in 1929 and laid to rest in a mausoleum in Tarnów, located in the center of a pond in a beautiful park.

Hello. Thank you for replying. I have seen many pictures of his monument. I ordered a book that is a biography but it is in Polish. I hope one day to get the part about his family translated. Can you please tell me if he has any memorabilia in a museum? I would like to contact them to see if I can get any information. Any information you can give me would be appreciated, if you can not, it is ok.

Please look at the Muzeum Okręgowe W Tarnowie. It has a link on the front page which says that this year is the "Year of General Jozef Bem" and there is plenty of information about it on their website.

Hello Scorpio. I went to the website, I am sure it is amazing, I did save the information. Do you know of a site that is in English. I wish that I could read the biography page, I do not even know who can read it. Thank you for giving me this information. Do you know if Bem had a specific Coat of Arms?

Nobles of the Bem family were entitled to use the rather rare Behem c-o-a which depicts a white sheep on the red half of the vertically split shield and a green griffin on the white half.
