Battle in the Great Northern War

The Battle of Kalisz took place on 29 October 1706 in Kalisz, Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth during the Great Northern War. The battle was fought by Russian cavalry along with allied Saxon and Polish forces, led by commander Aleksandr Menshikov; against a smaller Swedish force headed by colonel Arvid Axel Mardefelt and resulted in an allied victory. By this time the Polish forces under Augustus the Strong had signed a peace treaty with the Swedes, but August had delayed informing his Russian allies, leading to the battle.
