On 1 February 1411 a peace treaty was signed by both sides. The Polish Kingdom and Grand Duchy of Lithuania regained some territory, including Zemaitija, and part of Pomorze (Pomerania), but Malbork remained in German hands. Of course the Teutonic Order would pay money in compensation to the Poles, and all the prisoners would be freed. After this the weak Teutonic Order would not cause any problems to Poland - Lithuania, but they continued to occupy the formidable fortress of Malbork.
Jagiello's son, Casimir IV, presided over the Peace of Torun in 1466 by which time the Order ceased to be independent and the Grand Master became a Polish vassal.
Vitaut the Great would be known in subsequent history of Grand Duchy of Lithuania as saviour of the nation and Eastern Europe, while in the eyes of Polish historians, Jahaila (King Yagailla) is regarded in the same way. The Battle of Grunwald is the most important battle in history for both nations.
