Battles of Klettsk: 1506 and 1706

"Kletsk Battles of 1506 and 1706" is a book about two key events in the history of Belarus that took place in the same location but in different eras.

The book tells the story of two military events united by a common location. Battles took place near Kletsk in 1506 and 1706, significantly influencing the historical development of Belarus. The defeat of the Crimean Tatars by the army of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in August 1506 is one of the most glorious victories in national history. The battle between Swedish and Russian-Ukrainian forces in the spring of 1706 became the culmination of military operations in the Novogrudok Voivodeship during the Great Northern War. The appendices contain a number of little-known documents from the 16th and 18th centuries, some of which are published for the first time.
