Stanisław Starowieyski (1895–1941) was a Polish military officer and dedicated Catholic activist who served in both the Austro-Hungarian and Polish armed forces. Born into a noble family in Ustrobna, he fought in several major conflicts, including the Polish-Soviet War, for which he received prestigious military decorations. Beyond his military service, he was a papal chamberlain and a prominent leader in Catholic social organizations. His commitment to charity and faith led to his arrest by the Gestapo during the German occupation, eventually resulting in his death at the Dachau concentration camp.
