Summary/Abstract: In the past decades, or even during the last hundred years, many books and articles were published on the Crusade in 1396 and the Battle of Nicopolis. It is no wonder that the Crusade of 1396 still intrigues many people, being one of the emblematic events of the Christian undertakings in the Middle Ages. The topic is huge, so the study presents a slice of the Crusade. The aim of the study is to provide new data and information about the Hungarian King’s journey home after the Battle of Nicopolis, including the Danube section, which has not been included in the literature so far.
