If I could witness any historical event firsthand, I would choose to witness the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.

I would like to definitely see some medieval battes: Agnicourt and Crécy (and witness how those big French armies lose with relatively small English forces) Siege of Orléans (seeing Jeanne d’Arc live in action would be so awesome) Grunwald 1410 (since I’m Polish I really would like to see that haha) Siege of Rhodes 1480 (witnessing how small Hospitallers forces withstand huge Turkish army) Outside of medieval battles I definitely would like to see Winged Hussars charge in Vienna.
