Campaign against the Latvians Campaign against the Lithuanians The Battle of Lehola was fought in 1215 between the Livonian Brothers of the Sword, a crusading military order, and the Estonians.
In the spring of 1215, a Crusader force with their allies raided the Sakala County.
Afterwards, the crusader army besieged the stronghold of Lõhavere (Leole) that belonged to the elder Lembitu.
The Estonian forces inside the stronghold confronted the enemy and "gave them a big scare".
The Estonians weren't able to put the fire out and were forced to come out and surrender.
