Kircholm 1605 - 27th of September


 Salvete Omnes,

today is yet another anniversary of the famous battle of Kircholm 1605 - so here find some links to scholarly articles



 Grand Duchy of Lithuania Field Hetman Jan Karol Chodkiewicz famously crushed the army of the Swedish usurper Karl IX Vasa. 


Polish researcher Mariusz Balcerek provided, on his academia.edu page, various research papers on or about this famous  military engagement

 in Polish -
- Orde de Bataille of both armies .

 Jan karol Chodkiewicz's Army -

and others ...

while you are on YouTube you can watch some video productions on this battle eg  from Kings and Generals

 Paceam Aeternam to all the fallen soldiers
