Wikimedia list article
This is a list of alleged sightings of unidentified flying objects or UFOs in Poland.
10 May 1978, Emilcin
A farmer in Emilcin is said to have been abducted and medically examined by short, green-faced, humanoid entities speaking an unearthly language in a white, hovering, humming craft. There is now a memorial at the site.
19 January 2009, Jarnołtówek
At 1:00 am, Adam Maksymów of the village of Jarnołtówek near Prudnik went outside to charge his car battery. He was interrupted by a noise, which he likened to rockets blasting off. Then he heard a buzzing sound which he compared to that of a swarm of bees. He saw a blinding light and a huge saucer with a triangular glowing blue beam on its underbelly rise above the ground and take off into the night sky at a significant velocity. Other residents of Jarnołtówek also reported seeing the object.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “UFO sightings in Poland” as wikimedia list article. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as wikimedia list article. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q115796509. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1978 and 2009.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
