The Taborite army was almost completely destroyed, and Taborites as a military force ceased to exist. The road to accept Compact of Basel was open; it was signed on 5 July 1436 in Jihlava and the next month, Sigismund was accepted as a King of Bohemia by all major factions.

The last formation of Taborites under command of Jan Rohá? of Dubé was besieged in the castle Sion near Kutná Hora. It was then captured by Sigismund forces, and on 9 September, 1437 Jan Rohá?, who still refused to accept Sigismund as his King, was hanged in Prague.
