==Post-war legacy==
A [[Tannenberg Memorial|German monument]] commemorating the battle was completed in 1927 in [[Olsztynek|Hohenstein]]. However, it was blown up in [[World War II]] by the Germans during their retreat from Prussia in January 1945.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://info-poland.buffalo.edu/classroom/JM/monument.html|title=A Monument to German Pride: A history of the Tannenberg Memorial|website=buffalo.edu|access-date=29 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120229091937/http://info-poland.buffalo.edu/classroom/JM/monument.html|archive-date=29 February 2012|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}}</ref>
