On August 26, 1278, on the Marchfeld (Morava Field) in the east of today’s Lower Austria, the greatest cavalry battle ever seen on the European continent took place. The adversaries: the Habsburg German King Rudolph I and Přemyslid Ottkar II, the King of Bohemia. The battle was the climax of a conflict that had built up over the past five years. When it ended, one of the adversaries was dead and the rise of the other and his dynasty had begun. The Habsburgs left a decisive mark on the destiny of Europe for the coming 640 years.
