Legnickie Pole Museum, History and military museum in Legnickie Pole, Poland.
The Legnickie Pole Museum displays medieval weapons, armor, and battle artifacts within a former Holy Trinity Church building in southwestern Poland.
Established in 1961, the museum preserves the memory of the 1241 Battle of Legnica between Polish forces and Mongol invaders led by commanders Kadan and Baidar.
The museum collections present detailed dioramas and paintings that illustrate military strategies and medieval warfare techniques from the thirteenth century in Poland.
Located 10 kilometers southeast of Legnica, the museum offers educational programs and guided tours focusing on the Battle of Legnica and medieval military history.
The museum building stands next to a Baroque abbey that once served as a military training institute where Paul von Hindenburg and Manfred von Richthofen studied.
