Battle of Blenheim
The Battle of Blenheim was fought on 13 August 1704 near the village of Blindheim on the Danube in Bavaria, during the War of the Spanish Succession. An allied army under the Duke of Marlborough and Prince Eugene of Savoy crushed a Franco-Bavarian army under Marshal Tallard and Elector Max Emanuel. The victory saved Vienna from attack, knocked Bavaria out of the war and ended the reputation of French armies for invincibility.
