Emergence legend

As Sieciech, the Wojowód of Krakow, invaded Moravia in 1094, he heard that the Moravians not stayed far away. In a surprise attack was his vanguard, to which also belonged Godziemba, but in an ambush. This rode after he was disarmed in a nearby forest, where his pursuers caught up with him. Godziemba jumped off his horse and tore a young spruce from. He fought with her ​​as with a lance, and he managed to disarm the enemy and capture. In remembrance of this fact Godziemba was knighted by the Polish king Władysław Herman. His coat of arms was named after him. In addition, presumably his family got the lands Gostyn, Lomza and Inowrocław.

Another legend:

On July 15, 1410 took place in present-day north-western Poland the battle instead of Tannenberg (Polish Bitwa pod Grunwaldem ). In this, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order ( Ulrich von Jungingen ) and the Polish king were ( Władysław II Jagiello ) compared with their armies. When he went on with his heavy cavalry to attack, the Crusaders tried to surround him and thus yet to win the battle yet. When this saw the descendant Godziembas, he also tore a spruce, lay at her like a lance, and rode to the king for help. In gratitude for his support, he was on the same day by the king with the lands around Buk and Szamotuly ( like Gostyn until the beginning of socialism in Poland in her possession were ) rewarded.
