Бородинское сражение — крупнейшее сражение Отечественной войны 1812 года между русской и французской армиями. Оно состоялось 7 сентября (26 августа по старому стилю) 1812 г. у села Бородино в 125 км западнее Москвы. Формально сражение закончилось победой французских войск под командованием Наполеона, хотя французам не удалось одержать решающую победу над русскими войсками под командованием генерала Кутузова, достаточную для победы во всей кампании. Последовавшее отступление русской армии после сражения было продиктовано стратегическими соображениями и в конечном итоге привело к поражению Наполеона. Наполеон говорил: "Из всех моих сражений самое ужасное то, которое я дал под Москвой. Французы в нём показали себя достойными одержать победу, а русские стяжали право быть непобедимыми... Из пятидесяти сражений, мною данных, в битве под Москвой выказано [французами] наиболее доблести и одержан наименьший успех".
