The Battle of Hohenlinden was fought on 3 Decemberduring the French Revolutionary Wars. A French army under Jean Victor Marie Moreau won a decisive victory over the Austrians and Bavarians led by Archduke John of Austria. After being forced into a disastrous retreat, single schwanenstadt, the allies were compelled to request an armistice that effectively ended the War of the Second Coalition.
Hohenlinden is 33 km east of Munich in modern Germany. General of Division Moreau's 56, strong single schwanenstadt engaged some 64, single schwanenstadt, Austrians and Bavarians. The Austrians, believing they were pursuing a beaten enemy, moved through heavily wooded terrain in four disconnected columns.
Instead, Moreau ambushed the Austrians as they emerged from the Ebersberg forest while launching Antoine Richepanse 's division in a surprise envelopment of the Austrian left flank. Displaying superb individual initiative, Moreau's generals managed to encircle and smash the largest Austrian column.
This crushing victory, coupled with First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte 's victory at the Battle of Marengo on 14 Juneended the War of the Second Coalition, single schwanenstadt. In Februarythe Austrians signed the Treaty of Lunévilleaccepting French control up to the Rhine and the French puppet republics in Italy and the Netherlands.
The subsequent Treaty of Amiens between France and Britain single schwanenstadt the longest break in the wars of the Napoleonic period. From April to JulyMoreau's army drove the Austrian army of Feldzeugmeister Pál Kray from the Rhine River to the Inn River with victories at StockachMesskirchsingle schwanenstadt, and Höchstädt. On 15 July, the combatants agreed to an armistice.
Realizing that Kray was no longer up to the task, Emperor Francis II removed him from command. Clearly, the inexperienced youth could not cope with this enormous responsibility, so the emperor nominated Franz von Lauer as John's second-in-command and promoted him to Feldzeugmeister. Single schwanenstadt was directed to follow Lauer's instructions.
The armistice was renewed in September but lapsed on 12 November. By this time, Weyrother had convinced John and Lauer to adopt an offensive posture, single schwanenstadt. Weyrother's plan called for crushing the French left wing near Landshut and lunging south to cut Moreau's communications west of Munich. After a few days of marching, it became obvious that the Austrian army was too slow to execute such an ambitious plan.
So Lauer convinced the archduke to convert the enterprise into a direct attack on Munich. Even so, the sudden advance caught Moreau's somewhat scattered French forces by surprise and achieved local superiority. In the Battle of Ampfing on 1 December, the Austrians drove back part of General of Division Paul Grenier 's Left Wing. The defeated French managed to inflict 3, casualties on the Austrians while only suffering 1, losses.
Yet, when single schwanenstadt Austrian leaders found that Grenier evacuated Haag in Oberbayern the next day, they became ecstatic. Single schwanenstadt John and Weyrother overrode Lauer's cautious counsel and launched an all-out pursuit of an enemy they believed to be fleeing. To approach his position, the Austro-Bavarians had to advance directly west through heavily wooded terrain.
Moreau's single schwanenstadt defensive position consisted of four divisions facing east, single schwanenstadt. From north to south, these were commanded by General of Division Claude Legrand 7,General of Brigade Louis Bastoul 6,General of Division Michel Ney 9, and General of Division Emmanuel Grouchy 8, The divisions of Legrand, Bastoul and Ney belonged to Grenier's corps. Moreau held 1, heavy cavalry under General of Division Jean-Joseph Single schwanenstadt d'Hautpoul in reserve.
Single schwanenstadt to the south near Ebersberg were two more divisions, under Generals of Division Antoine Richepanse 10, and Charles Decaen 10, The divisions of d'Hautpoul, Richepanse, Decaen, and Grouchy formed Moreau's Reserve Corps.
Moreau planned to have Richepanse march northeast to strike the Austrian left, or southern flank. His main line would maneuver in open terrain and counterattack the Austrians as they emerged from the woods.
Decaen would support Richepanse. According to the battle plan drawn up by Weyrother, single schwanenstadt, the Austrians advanced west in four corps.
From north to south they were Feldmarschall-Leutnant Michael von Kienmayer 's Right Column 16,Feldmarschall-Leutnant Louis-Willibrord-Antoine Baillet de Latour 's Right Center Column 10,[11] single schwanenstadt Feldzeugmeister Johann Kollowrat 's Left Center Column 20,and Feldmarschall-Leutnant Johann Sigismund Riesch 's Left Column 13, The three southern columns marched near the main road from Haag single schwanenstadt Hohenlinden.
Meanwhile, Kienmayer followed the Isen River valley from Dorfen west to Lengdorfthen south to Isenbefore approaching the Hohenlinden plain from the east.
Latour used trails just to the north of the highway, while Riesch followed tracks just to the south. Due to the densely forested terrain, bad roads, and poor staff work, the Austrian columns were not mutually supporting, single schwanenstadt. Their commanders mistakenly thought the French were in retreat and were rushing to catch their enemies before they could escape. All Austrian columns started at dawn.
Marching on the all-weather highway, Kollowrat's column made good time despite heavy snow. At am, his advance guard under General-Major Franz Löpper collided with Colonel Pierre-Louis Binet de Marcognet single schwanenstadt th Line Infantry Demi-Brigade of Grouchy's division, single schwanenstadt. Defending deep in the forest, the th held their ground at first.
However, General-Major Lelio Spannochi sent a grenadier battalion in a flank attack and drove the French back. Kollowrat committed General-Major Bernhard Erasmus von Deroy 's Bavarian brigade and a second grenadier battalion to keep the attack rolling. As the Austrians burst from the tree line, Grouchy led a powerful infantry and cavalry counterattack. Kollowrat's troops reeled back as the 11th Chasseurs à cheval Regiment broke a square of grenadiers and the 4th Hussar Regiment overran an artillery battery.
Both Spannochi and the wounded Marcognet became prisoners. Having lost five cannon, Kollowrat decided single schwanenstadt suspend his drive until Latour and Riesch came up on his flanks. Anxious about his open left flank, he sent two grenadier battalions back in search of Riesch's column.
To the north, Kienmayer flushed French outposts from Isen, single schwanenstadt. These executed a planned withdrawal single schwanenstadt to Grenier's main line of defense. Feldmarschall-Leutnant Prince Karl of Schwarzenbergwho led Kienmayer's left division, pushed southwest to crash into the divisions of Bastoul single schwanenstadt Ney.
An Austrian force captured the town of Forsternbut Moreau committed d'Hautpoul's reserve cavalry to help drive them out. A back and forth struggle began over the hamlets of Tading, single schwanenstadt, Wetting, Kreiling, and Kronacker, which run in a north to south line.
The Austrian Murray Infantry Regiment Nr. On the far north flank, Feldmarschall-Leutnant Archduke Ferdinand's division began coming into action against Legrand near the town of Harthofen.
Latour, single schwanenstadt, moving along muddy forest trails amid snow and sleet squalls, fell badly behind schedule.
At am, single schwanenstadt, his column was still well to the rear of Kollowrat's corps. By this time, the gunfire from Kienmayer's and Kollowrat's combats could be clearly heard to the front.
Even more disturbing were sounds of battle from the south. Latour made the extraordinary decision to divide the divisions of Feldmarschall-Leutnants Prince Friedrich of Hessen-Homburg and Friedrich Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen into small task forces. He sent one infantry battalion and six cavalry squadrons to the north to look for Kienmayer.
One battalion and four squadrons marched south to find Kollowrat, single schwanenstadt. After advancing the bulk of his column to the village of Mittbach, Latour sent two battalions and two squadrons to assist Schwarzenberg's attack and three battalions and an artillery battery to help Kollowrat.
This left him with only three battalions and six squadrons. Like Latour, Riesch's troops had to contend with terrible roads and snow squalls. They fell far behind Kollowrat, reaching Albaching only at am.
Consequently, Richepanse's division passed in front of Riesch. Near the village of Single schwanenstadt. Christoph, the two Austrian grenadier battalions sent by Kollowrat stumbled upon Richepanse's marching column, cutting his division in half. With single-minded determination, the Frenchman left his rear brigade under General of Brigade Jean-Baptiste Drouet to fight it out and drove to the north with his leading brigade.
With the 8th Line Demi-Brigade and 1st Chasseurs à Cheval leading, Richepanse seized the village of Maitenbeth and advanced to the main highway. There he confronted elements of Feldmarschall-Leutnant Prince Johann of Liechtenstein's cavalry division.
Leaving his two advance units to bear the brunt of General-major Christian Wolfskeel's cuirassier charges, Richepanse wheeled the 48th Line Demi-Brigade west onto the highway. Aware that this route took him directly into Kollowrat's rear area, he formed the demi-brigade's three battalions side by side with skirmishers protecting the flanks.
Hearing firing to the east, Weyrother gathered up three Bavarian battalions from Kollowrat's column and sent them to investigate. These units moved to the southeast and became embroiled in the fight with Drouet.
Two more Bavarian battalions under General-major Karl Philipp von Wrede now appeared and blocked Richepanse's path. After a brief fight, the 48th Line overwhelmed Wrede's men and Weyrother fell wounded.
Riesch's patrols told him that two French divisions were in the area. Instead of pushing into the combat raging to his front, he cautiously decided to wait for his stragglers to arrive at Albaching. He then fell into the same error as Latour. Dividing his two powerful divisions under Feldmarschall-Leutnant Ignaz Gyulai and Feldmarschall-Leutnant Maximilian, Count of Merveldt into five small columns, single schwanenstadt, he sent each forward on a separate forest trail. Riesch held back three battalions and most of his cavalry as a reserve.
At am, Decaen came up in support of Drouet's brigade near the southern edge of the battlefield. The situation was very fluid, with units blundering into each other in a heavy snowfall. The fresh infusion of French troops finally broke through the opposition. Drouet led his troops north single schwanenstadt the highway, where the 8th Line still battled Liechtenstein's cavalry, single schwanenstadt.
Spearheaded by the Polish Danube LegionDecaen turned east to grapple with Riesch. Decaen's men overcame Riesch's small columns one by one and single schwanenstadt them back to the heights of Albaching. Sensing victory, Moreau ordered Grenier's divisions and Grouchy to attack around noon. Undeterred by Latour's weak pressure on his front, Ney swung to his right and began pounding Kollowrat's troops. Pressing his attack, he overran their positions, capturing 1, soldiers and ten cannon.
Grouchy single schwanenstadt returned to the offensive.
