The Battle of Branyiszkó was a battle in the Hungarian war of Independence of 1848-1849, fought on 5 February 1849 between the revolutionary Hungarian division led by Colonel Richard Guyon against the detachment of the Austrian Empire led by Major General Franz Deym von Stritež, in the Pass of Branyiszkó. This was the last battle of the Hungarian Upper Danube Army retreat through Northern Hungary led by General Artúr Görgei, which was a diversion to lure as many Austrian troops as possible, in order to prevent the Austrian main army led by Field Marshal Alfred I, Prince of Windisch-Grätz from attacking the Hungarian headquarters and interim capital from Debrecen. In this battle, the Hungarian army led by Guyon broke through the 750 m high mountain pass, chasing away the Austrian troops which tried to defend it, allowing the army of Görgei to arrive in Eastern Hungary, then force, together with Colonel György Klapka Lieutenant General Franz Schlik to retreat from there.
