Battle of Lipany
The Battle of Lipany, also called the Battle of Cesky Brod, was fought 40 km east of Prague on May 30, 1434 and virtually ended the Hussite Wars. An army of Utraquist nobility and Catholics, called the Bohemian League, defeated the radical Taborites led by Prokop the Great, the overall commander, and by Čapek of Sány, the cavalry commander.
