Battle of Fleurus (1622)



The Battle of Fleurus of August 29, 1622 was fought between a Catholic army, led by Spain, and the Protestant Powers of the Holy Roman Empire in the Thirty Years' War. The bloody struggle left the Protestants mangled and the Spanish masters of the field, but did not prevent Graf von Mansfeld from racing his army to the relief of Bergen op Zoom.
