Gdańsk, besieged since February 1734, after the failure of a French expedition to relieve the city, is taken on June 30 by a Russian-Saxon army that has come under the overall command of Field Marshal Burkhard Christoph von Münnich.
Stanisław flees, first to Königsberg, and eventually to France.
This ends major military activity in Poland itself, although it continues to be occupied by foreign troops as Augustus deals with partisan supporters of Stanisław.
