Battle of Sinsheim
The Battle of Sinsheim was a victory of the Vicomte de Turenne, over forces from the Holy Roman Empire on 16 June 1674, during the Franco-Dutch War.
The battle was fought in Sinsheim (southeast of Heidelberg), not Sinzheim (near Baden-Baden) as it is often presumed.
==Context==
In 1674, while the bulk of French forces were mobilized in the Netherlands (with Conde) and Franche-Comté (with Louis XIV), Turenne was responsible for holding back the Imperial forces on the Rhine. He took up position in the Alsace with his very limited forces. Disagreeing with the strategy of Louis XIV, he saw the Alsace as a strategically important location and wanted to avoid the danger of an invasion at any price. He therefore decided to attack rather than defend, to prevent the war coming to the Alsace.
Departing from Haguenau, he crossed the Rhine near Philippsburg on a pontoon bridge, with 6000 cavalry and 1500 infantry. He covered 160 km in five days to catch up with the Lorraine force under Aeneas de Caprara (7000 cavalry and 2000 infantry) and to prevent their union with the Imperial army under Alexander von Bournonville. In this way, Turenne forced Caprara to do battle on June 16 at Sinsheim.
