And today, we're witnessing another success story: The presentation of a 9th century silver and gilded cross in its original glory.

The Crusader army was defeated at Kutná Hora, where the battle broke out on 22 December 1421. Žižek was helped by reinforcements from the Jičín and Turnov regions. Unexpectedly, after the New Year, they all attacked the royal army together, which was caught by surprise.

An important success was scored by the American army at Bastogne in Belgium. They were able to break through the German defenses, even while battling disease and frostbite. The weather helped, and it calmed down on December 26, 1944.
