Sosna Powstańców 1863 is located in the Kampinos National Park at the intersection of the red Main Trail of the Kampinos Forest and the green Southern Forest Trail. The pine tree was felled by lightning in 1984 and lies next to the monument commemorating the insurgents killed after the Battle of Buda Zaborowska (April 10, 1863).

On the southern edge of the village of Górki grew a magnificent 170-year-old pine tree, whose branches hung down to the ground. On these branches, the Cossacks hanged the insurgents who had escaped into the forest after the Battle of Buda Zaborowska (April 10, 1863) and were captured in this area. During the fight, the commander of the insurgent unit, Major Walerian Remiszewski, sent some of the unarmed insurgents into the forest. After defeating the unit, the Russians chased the escapees, and those captured without trial were hanged.
