	Battle of the Ice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of the Ice (Estonian: Jäälahing; German: Schlacht auf dem Eise; Russian: Ледовое побоище), also known as the Battle of Lake Peipus (German: Schlacht auf dem Peipussee), was a battle between Novgorod and the Teutonic Knights on April 5, 1242 at Lake Peipus.
		Along with the Battle of Grunwald in 1410, the Battle of the Ice was one of the most significant defeats sustained by Roman Catholic crusaders during the Northern Crusades.
		Lead by Prince-Bishop Hermann of the Bishopric of Dorpat, the knights and their auxiliary troops of local Ugaunian Estonians then met with Alexander's forces by the narrow strait that connects the northern and southern parts of Lake Peipus (Lake Peipus proper with Lake Pskovskoe) on April 5, 1242.
