PICTURES:

"Kleinmerkelsburg in the background - the right flank of the prussians"


"The westphalian infantry brigade in attack columns and the french-westphalian right wing with mass of cavalry"




"French cuirassiers"


"The attack starts with the westphalian cannonade"




"Now - time for attack: The prussian cavalry attacks at first the french cavalry that answers with a glory countercharge."


"The prussian cavalry outflanked the french and throw it partially back to his start positions."


"The westphalian infantry storms the ruined church in the centre".


" ... and the breaktrough at the prussian centre positions, hold by silesian Landwehr."


"The prussian retreat to Kleinmerkelsburg".


After sunset, the french-westphalian troops consolidate his positions and make his guns ready for the final attack on the village on next day ...
