  Morąg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Morąg IPA='mɔrɔŋk (German Mohrungen) is a town in north-eastern Poland in the voivodship of Warmia-Masuria, formerly part of East Prussia.
The town was founded as Mohrungen in 1302 in (East) Prussia and in 1327 attained the Kulmer Recht from Hermann von Oettingen.
After belonging to the Duchy of Prussia under the Polish crown, the town became part of the Kingdom of Prussia and was from 1752 the seat of the district of Mohrungen.

 Napoleon's Polish Campaign: General Peter Bagration during January
During the clash, Bernadotte was informed that the Russian cavalry had suddenly appeared behind him at Mohrungen, thus cutting the French line of retreat.
This threat was posed by the squadrons of the left wing of the Russian army that, moving through Alt Reichau and passing between Narien and Mahrung lakes, had advanced to Mohrungen and captured the baggage and supply columns.
The action in front of Mohrungen might have involved Bernadotte in a serious disaster, since he should have taken measures to protect the area between the lakes on his right rear.

 INS Scholarship 1997: Prelude to Eylau: Benningsen's Report to the Czar
Marshal Bernadotte got wind of the approach of the Russian army, came with all his forces to Mohrungen, established his headquarters there and moved 1/2 a league ahead of the town, on the road to Lipstadt.
But the most keen loss that we sustained was that of the brave general Anrepp, killed by skirmishers, in the most unhappy manner and regretted by the whole army.
While this affair took place in front of Mohrungen, Prince Michael Dolgoruky struck with a regiment of dragoons in the rear of the enemy lines and sneaked into their headquarters.

On the 1st we reached General Bennigsen's headquarters at Mohrungen, and were received by him, as I expected, with all possible and pleasing consideration.
We were lodged in his house and in the room where Bernadotte a few nights before had slept, and in which all his baggage had been taken by the Russians.
Their bodies were lying to the right and left of the road by which we passed.
