Šaja vieta 1701. g. 9. julija zviedru armija karala Karla XII vadiba varoniga kauja sakava apvienoto sakšu – krievu armiju sakšu feldmaršala Šteinava vadiba. Vispirms zviedru armijas dala, kurai pietika laivu škersoja Daugavu zem specigas sakšu artilerijas uguns, pec tam ienema 3 ar lielgabaliem aprikotus ienaidnieka zemes nocietinajumus (lidz musdienam nav saglabajušies) un pec tam sakava vairakas reizes parako pretinieku. Ta ka kaujas vieta šai patiešam varonigajai cinai nav nekada pieminas akmens, lai šis slepnis kalpo ta vieta.
In this field 9th of june 1701 swedish army lead by king Charles XII himself defeated united saxon – russian forces lead by saxon field-marshal Steinau. First, that part of swedish army which had places in boats crossed river Daugava under heavy enemy artillery fire, then conquered 3 with cannons armed earth fortifications – redoubts (not survived untill novadays) and afterwards defeated several times superrior enemy forces. As there are no memorial stone or plaque in the place, let the catche act as one.
