Battle of Alkmaar

From Warlike

Q1933601




The Battle of Alkmaar was fought on 2 October 1799 between forces of the French Republic and her ally, the Batavian Republic under the command of general Guillaume Marie Anne Brune, and an expeditionary force from Great Britain and her ally Russia, commanded by Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany in the vicinity of Alkmaar during the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland. The battle ended in an Anglo-Russians victory, forcing Brune to order a strategic withdrawal the next day to a line between Monnickendam in the East and Castricum in the West. The Duke of York praised the actions of the Russian commanders in this battle, and also congratulated Emperor Paul on the victory. There the final battle of the campaign would take place on 6 October.
