The Saxons won the Battle of Stamford Bridge on September 25, 1066, largely due to their strategic surprise and superior numbers. Led by King Harold Godwinson, the Saxons caught the Viking forces, led by King Harald Hardrada, off guard as they were unprepared for battle after a long march. The Saxons utilized effective tactics and their home terrain to their advantage, ultimately overwhelming the Viking forces and securing a decisive victory. This battle marked the end of Viking invasions in England.
