Juthas — The monument of G.C von Döbeln In series 1900-1
"The monument of G.C von Döbeln was erected in remembrance of Major-General Georg Carl von Döbeln, who led the battle of Jutas on 13th September 1808, when the Russian army was beaten off. The battle is widely known through the poem of J.L Runeberg called "Döbeln vid Jutas" (= Döbeln at Jutas) in the "Fänrik Ståls sägner" (= the legends of Second Lieutenant Stål). The monument can be seen at the battlefield about 3 km outside the town."
