During the World War I, Andrychow was near the front-line zone and no military operations were conducted here. Nevertheless, the inhabitants suffered from many inconvenience: there was a shortage of food and fuel, in factories (including Czechowiczka Brothers Factory) there were no hands to work, the schools did not function periodically (from September 1914 to August 1915 there was a hospital for infectious patients in the school building). The City Council tried to solve the problems of food supply, watching at the same time the situation on the war fronts, as well as the changes taking place in Austro-Hungary. The difficult war time situation did not affect the patriotic attitude of the inhabitants, who joined the Polish Legions in large numbers. At the beginning of 1915, legionaries who were going to rest in Kęty, were taken with a big enthusiasm in Andrychów. In 1917, a celebratory unveiling of Polish Legion Shield was made in the city. This initiative was aimed at fundraising for legionaries and their families. On the 29.10.1918 four soldiers of the Legions: Józef Herzog, Adam Myjak, Władysław Pająk and Tomasz Płonka disarmed the Austro-Hungarian military police station in Andrychów. The city was within the borders of the reborn Polish state. The soldiers from Andrychów, who fought both in the Austro-Hungarian army and in the Polish Legions, had a lot of merit in it.

Podczas I wojny światowej Andrychów znajdował w pobliży strefy przyfrontowej i nie prowadzono tu żadnych operacji wojskowych. Niemniej jednak mieszkańcy cierpieli z powodu wielu niedogodności: brakowało żywności, rąk do pracy (m.in. w fabryce braci Czeczowiczka), nie funkcjonowały szkoły (w okresie od września 1914 r. do sierpnia 195 r. w budynku szkoły istniał szpital zakaźny). Trudna sytuacja w czasie wojny nie wpłynęła na patriotyczne postawy mieszkańców Andrychowa - wielu z nich służyło w Legionach Polskich. 29 października 1918 r. czterech legionistów: Józef Herzog, Adam Myjak, Władysław Pająk i Tomasz Płonka rozbroili posterunek żandarmerii austriackiej.
