The Battle of Německý Brod (also Battle of Deutschbrod) took place on 10 January 1422, at Německý Brod in Bohemia, during the Hussite Wars. Led by Jan Žižka, the Hussites besieged the army of Royalist crusaders. The Roman Catholic crusaders were no match for the Hussites and Německý Brod was quickly taken and sacked.
