Amid the chaotic clashes of Russians and Poles in Moscow's Red Square in 1611, two brave leaders emerged: Prince Dmitry Pozharsky and Kuzma Minin. Their legendary alliance, immortalized in artworks like the Saddle of Prince Pozharsky and the sabres they wielded, ignited a national uprising that ultimately saved Russia from foreign invasion. The iconic Saint Basil's Cathedral on the Red Square bears witness to their triumph, while monuments in their honor stand tall, including the 1816 bronze statue at the cathedral.
