Polish Jacobins formed during the Great Sejm as an offshoot of the "Kołłątaj's Forge" ("Kuźnia Kołłątajska") of Hugo Kołłątaj (hence their alternate name - Huguenots ("Hugoniści") and later the Patriotic Party ("Stronnictwo Patriotyczne"). Polish Jacobins played a significant part in the preparation of the Warsaw Uprising and Wilno Uprising during the Kościuszko Uprising. Under the name of Association of Citizens Offering Help and Assistance to National Magistrate for Good of the Homeland ("Zgromadzenie Obywateli Ofiarujących Pomoc i Posługę Magistraturom Narodowym w Celu Dobra Ojczyzny") they formed a political club (based on French Jacobin Club) which became part of the provisional government of Poland (Temporary Provisional Council, "Radza Zastępcza Tymczasowa"). For their support for lynching of supporters of the Targowica Confederation they have been abolished by Tadeusz Kościuszko, but as the Uprising neared its defeat they were reactivated under the name of Association for Supporting the Revolution and the Cracow Act ("Zgromadzenie dla Utrzymania Rewolucji i Aktu Krakowskiego"). After the third partition of Poland, many Jacobins emigrated and joined the Polish Legions in Italy. Many of those who remained in Poland took part in various conspirational organisations (Association of Polish Republicans, "Towarzystwo Republikanów Polskich"). Eventually some prominent Jacobins (like Józef Zajączek) became part of the government of the Duchy of Warsaw and later Congress Poland). During the November Uprising they were reactivated as Patriotic Society ("Towarzystwo Patriotyczne"), founded by Joachim Lelewel. Polish Jacobins slowly became absorbed into other groups of the Great Emigration, although traces of their ideas were visible not only in the January Uprising but also in the Józef Piłsudski's Polish Socialist Party ("Polska Partia Socjalistyczna").
