Battle of Auray
The Battle of Auray, fought on 29 September 1364 in southern Brittany, was the decisive battle of the War of the Breton Succession. An Anglo-Breton army under John of Montfort and Sir John Chandos defeated the Franco-Breton forces of Charles of Blois, who was killed, while Bertrand du Guesclin was captured. The Treaty of Guérande in 1365 recognised Montfort as Duke John IV.
