Battle of Wagram
In the Battle of Wagram (5–6 July 1809) Napoleon Bonaparte's French forces defeated Archduke Charles' Austrian army, near Vienna, effectively bringing the War of the Fifth Coalition to an end. The battle centered on the isle of Lobau on the Danube and on the plain of the Marchfeld around the town of Deutsch-Wagram. Artillery was a major factor with 300,000 men clashing in the largest battle yet of the Napoleonic Wars.
