Special facts
At the Berezina on 14–17 (26–29) November 1812 Napoleon's army crossed the river with enormous losses and escaped encirclement, but as a fighting force it all but ceased to exist. The 5-rouble coin "Battle of Berezina" was issued in 2012 in the "Battles and Significant Events of the Patriotic War of 1812 and the Foreign Campaigns of the Russian Army of 1813–1814" series.
