For the self-confidence of the - often oppressed - Polish nation, the Battle of Tannenberg, to which this monument commemorates, is very significant, because this victory was an important contribution to the liberation from the former rule by the Teutonic Order (with its headquarters at the Marienburg fortress near Danzig).
