Kazimierz Lutosławski

Kazimierz Lutosławski (March 4, 1880, Drozdowo, Podlaskie Voivodeship - January 5, 1924, Drozdowo, Poland) was a Polish physician, priest and Polish Scouting founder and activist. He designed the Krzyż Harcerski (Polish Scouting Cross).

Kazimierz was born in 1880 at an estate in Drozdowo northeast of Warsaw to a Polish family of agronomist Franciszek Dionizy Lutosławski and his second wife Paulina née Szczygielska, highly educated members of the landed gentry.[1] Kazimierz became one of Franciszek's six notable sons.[2] He received doctorate in medicine in Zürich, Switzerland.[3] Kazimierz was the fifth son of Franciszek. His older brother Marian Lutosławski, famous inventor and humanitarian, was murdered by the Bolsheviks near Moscow together with his other brother Józef Lutosławski, the father of composer Witold Lutosławski. Witold was Kazimierz Lutosławski's nephew.
