The Battle of Radom, also known as the Battle of Ilza, was part of the Invasion of Poland during the Second World War. It lasted from 8 September 1939 to 9 September 1939. Polish troops of the Prusy Army, under the Lieutenant Muzyka, defended the city of Ilza and road from Sandomierz to Radom. The Polish infantry were eventually defeated by German armoured troops and made their last stand in an ancient castle on a hill near Iłża.
