Dmitri Donskoy (1350-1389), the Grand Duke of Moscow (from 1359) and Vladimir (from 1362), led the Russian people's armed struggle against the Tatar-Mongol invaders. On September 8, 1380, he defeated the army of the Tatar khan Mamai on Kulikovo Plane, a field in the upper reaches of the River Don, after which he received the name Donskoy. In his reign Moscow finally established its leadership among Russian lands. Dmitri Donskoy was buried in the Moscow Kremlin's Archangel Cathedral.
