Phraya Pichai, broken sword

On February 20, 1969, the Permanent Secretary of the Interior, Tow Suwan State, presided over the opening ceremony of the Broken Sword Monument of Phraya Pichai, enshrined in front of Uttaradit City Hall in honor of the heroism of Phraya Pichai, the Grand Vizier who fought against the Burmese army until his sword was broken.

Monument to Phraya Pichai Broken Sword

Located in front of Uttaradit City Hall (old back), Tha Tha Masonic, Uttaradit City, is a handsome black brass about 2 meters high, standing holding a broken sword in the right hand and a good sword in the left hand, designed by the Department of Arts.

Built to commemorate the heroism of 1773 in the battle against the Burmese army that had come to beat Pichai, where Phraya Pichai had fought until the right manual sword was broken, but still managed to lead the army victorious.

Nearby is home to the largest water iron sword museum in the world and the Yapishai Broken Sword Museum.

... Read moreเมื่อได้ไปเยือนอนุสาวรีย์พระยาพิชัยดาบหักที่จังหวัดอุตรดิตถ์ ผมรู้สึกได้ถึงพลังแห่งประวัติศาสตร์อันยิ่งใหญ่ของวีรบุรุษไทย พระยาพิชัยเป็นทหารเอกในยุคสมเด็จพระเจ้าตากสินมหาราช และเป็นสัญลักษณ์ของความกล้าหาญที่ไม่ยอมแพ้ แม้ในระหว่างการสู้รบกับกองทัพพม่าที่ยกมาตีเมืองพิชัย เขาต่อสู้จนดาบคู่มือขวาหัก แต่ยังสามารถนำทัพสงครามจนได้รับชัยชนะอย่างมหัศจรรย์ ผมประทับใจกับรายละเอียดของอนุสาวรีย์ที่เป็นรูปหล่อทองเหลืองรมดำสูงประมาณ 2 เมตร ซึ่งแสดงท่าทางยืนถือดาบหักในมือขวาและดาบดีในมือซ้าย อนุสาวรีย์นี้ตั้งอยู่หน้าศาลากลางจังหวัดหลังเก่าในตำบลท่าอิฐ อำเภอเมืองอุตรดิตถ์ ซึ่งเป็นสถานที่สำคัญที่สะท้อนประวัติศาสตร์ท้องถิ่นได้อย่างงดงาม นอกจากนี้ บริเวณใกล้เคียงยังมีพิพิธภัณฑ์ดาบเหล็กน้ำพี้ที่ใหญ่ที่สุดในโลก และพิพิธภัณฑ์พระยาพิชัยดาบหัก เพื่อให้เราได้เรียนรู้เรื่องราวของวัสดุและประวัติศาสตร์เกี่ยวกับดาบที่ไม่เพียงแต่มีความงาม แต่มีคุณค่าทางประวัติศาสตร์และวัฒนธรรมของไทย เป็นโอกาสดีที่ได้สัมผัสมรดกแห่งความกล้าหาญและภูมิปัญญาที่ส่งต่อกันมาอย่างยาวนาน การเยี่ยมชมสถานที่แห่งนี้ทำให้ผมได้ตระหนักว่าประวัติศาสตร์ไม่ได้อยู่แค่ในตำรา แต่ถูกถ่ายทอดผ่านรูปปั้น พิพิธภัณฑ์ และเรื่องราวของวีรบุรุษที่ควรรักษาและเล่าขานต่อไปเพื่อให้คนรุ่นหลังได้ซาบซึ้งถึงความเสียสละและความเป็นไทยอย่างแท้จริง
