The study focuses on the combat activities of the German 4th Infantry Division in Slovakia, formed from the German Beskiden Corps, commanded by General Georg von der Marwitz. The Corps was formed of three German divisions: 4th Infantry Division, 25th Reserve Division, and 35th Reserve Division. Units of the 4th Infantry Division arrived in Slovakia in several train transports at the beginning of April 1915. The 4th Infantry Division was the left wing of the Beskiden Corps. Its units had their headquarters in the villages of Radvaň nad Laborcom and Oľka. The division successfully halted the Russian offensive on the 11-13 April 1915. In the second half of April, it remained in positions in the valley of Oľka and Laborec in the present-day district of Medzilaborce. On the 6-7 May 1915, the 4th Infantry Division took part in the liberation of the town of Medzilaborce from Russian troops.
