	Battle of the Neva - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of the Neva (Невская битва in Russian, or Nevskaya bitva) was fought between the Novgorod Republic and Swedish armies on the Neva River, near the settlement of Ust-Izhora, on July 15, 1240.
		The purpose of the Swedish invasion was to gain control over the mouth of the Neva and the city of Ladoga and, hence, seize the most important part of the Trade Route from the Varangians to the Greeks, which had been under Novgorod's control.
		On receiving the news of the advancing Swedish army, presumably under the command of Birger Magnusson (later known as Birger jarl), the 20-year-old Prince Alexander Yaroslavich of Novgorod moved his army down the Volkhov River and reached Ladoga before the enemy.

		Alexander Nevsky was so urgently needed in 1938 that entire units of the Russia army were drafted to serve as extras, and the climactic battle scenes were shot during a July heat wave on a vast leveled field covered with sodium silicate to give it the appearance of ice.
		Suddenly in the spring sunshine the ice of the lake cracks under the heavy armor of the mounted Germans, and most of the invading army sinks to its death in the icy waters.
		The battle ends with unexpected suddenness; the astonished peasants look out at what little remains of the enemy force, as the orchestra plays a poignant phrase from the fourth movement.
