"The Grunwald Monument" in Krakow, Poland.
The Grunwald Monument marks the Polish and Lithuanian victory over the Teutonic Knights at the eponymous battle in 1410. The battle, one of the largest in medieval Europe, marked the the beginning of the decline of the Germanic-Prussian order and the rise of the Polish-Lithuanian union’s dominance in Central and Eastern Europe.
The 79 ft. (24 m.) tall monument features King Władysław Jagiełło on top of the plinth. Below him on the sides are the figures of the Grand Duke of Lithuania with the mortally wounded Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, Ulrich von Jungingen. Also on the monument are a Polish knight and squire and a Lithuanian knight with a bound Knight of the Cross.
