The Battle of Valenciennes was fought on 16 July 1656 between the Spanish troops commanded by John Joseph of Austria and the French troops under Henri de la Tour d'Auvergne, Vicomte de Turenne, in the outskirts of the said city in the Spanish Netherlands during the Franco-Spanish War.

  • La batalla o setge de Valenciennes (16 de juliol de 1656) va ser una victòria de l'exèrcit espanyol al comandament de Lluís de Condé i Joan Josep d'Àustria sobre el francès del mariscal Turena a la rodalia d'aquesta localitat francesa, en el transcurs de la Guerra franco-espanyola (1635-1659). Va ser una de les darreres grans victòries espanyoles del segle XVII, i una de les poques derrotes que va patir en la seua carrera el vescomte de Turena, Mariscal de França. (ca)
  • Die Schlacht bei Valenciennes fand am 16. Juli 1656 während des Französisch-Spanischen Krieges statt und endete mit einem Sieg der Spanier. Es handelte sich dabei um das Aufbrechen der bereits seit dem 18. Mai andauernden französischen Belagerung von Valenciennes durch ein spanisches Entsatzheer. Es war einer der letzten großen spanischen Siege des 17. Jahrhunderts über eine französische Armee und eine der wenigen Niederlagen von Turenne. (de)
  • The Battle of Valenciennes was fought on 16 July 1656 between the Spanish troops commanded by John Joseph of Austria and the French troops under Henri de la Tour d'Auvergne, Vicomte de Turenne, in the outskirts of the said city in the Spanish Netherlands during the Franco-Spanish War. After a period of Spanish recovery following the Peace of Münster in 1648, France went again on the offensive in 1654, having succeeded in suppressing internal rebellions, and took several towns in the province of Hainaut over the course of two years. On early 1656, Turenne was instructed by the French court to continue the offensive. He intended at first to besiege Tournai, but realising that it had been strongly reinforced by the Army of Flanders under the newly-appointed John Joseph of Austria, illegitimate son of Philip IV of Spain, he went instead to besiege Valenciennes, in the course of the Scheldt river. The defenders of the city opened locks and breached dikes to flood the surroundings and hamper the siege. Their strong resistance gave time the Spanish army to prepare a relief which took place one month after the beginning of the siege. The early hours of 16 July, the forces led by John Joseph of Austria and the Prince of Condé, the victor of the Battle of Rocroi, now in Spanish service, stormed the French circumvallation lines west of Valenciennes, defended by the forces of Field Marshal Henri de La Ferté-Senneterre. The Spanish were victorious and destroyed Le Ferté's army, whom Turenne was unable to help because of the floods that separated their respective armies. The Battle of Valenciennes was the worst of only a few defeats that Turenne suffered in his long career campaigning, and is regarded as Spain's last great victory of the 17th century, as well as one of France's worst defeats of the century. Coupled with over the French at Pavia in 1655, that of Valenciennes seriously damaged France's military capabilities and fueled the hopes in the Spanish court for a favourable peace with France after more than twenty years of conflict. Peace talks took place at Madrid during the summer of that year, but ultimately failed to produce any result, and the war continued for three more years, until the Peace of the Pyrenees in 1659. (en)

  • Het Beleg van Valencijn (Valenciennes) of de Slag bij Valencijn had plaats op 16 juli 1656. Het was een treffen vlak buiten de muren van de stad tussen Nederlands-Spaanse regeringstroepen onder leiding van Juan II van Oostenrijk en het Franse leger onder maarschalk Henri de la Tour d'Auvergne. In de context van de Frans-Spaanse Oorlog (1635-1659) begon het Franse leger op 18 mei 1656 de belegering van de stad, die werd verdedigd door een Spaans garnizoen, onder leiding van Francisco de Meneses. Don Juan, landvoogd van de Spaanse Nederlanden, kwam de stad te hulp. Ook Lodewijk II van Bourbon-Condé vocht (voor één keer) tegen de Fransen. Het Zuid-Nederlandse leger behaalde een snelle overwinning en nam 400 Franse officieren gevangen (77 volgens Franse cijfers). (nl)
