The decisive Battle of Kunersdorf occurred on 12 August 1759 near Kunersdorf (Kunowice), immediately east of Frankfurt an der Oder (the second largest city in Prussia-now Germany). Part of the wider Seven Years' War, the battle involved over 100,000 men. An Allied army commanded by Russian count Pyotr Saltykov and Austrian general Ernst Gideon von Laudon from Livonia (Latvia) that included 41,000 Russians and 18,500 Austrians defeated Frederick the Great's army of 50,900 Prussians.
