Description of  Banderia Apud Grunwald II: Choragwie krzyzackie pod Grunwaldem - Teutonic Banners at Grunwald [Polish / English]

This publication is the second volume of a two-part work Banderia apud Grunwald. This volume shows reconstructions of the standards of the Knights of the Teutonic Order. Under these standards the Teutonic Knights fought against Polish forces in the greatest battle in the history of mediaeval Poland - indeed in arguably the greatest battle ever fought in mediaeval Europe. Fought on 15 July 1410 it is known to Poles as the battle of Grunwald, while Germans call it the first battle of Tannenberg.
