The Battle of Grenoble was a military engagement in March 1813 in which an Austrian army with Italian reinforcements launched an attack into southern France from northern Italy, designed as a feint to distract Napoleon from his campaigns in Russia. Designed to be timed with a similar Austrian attack against Bavaria in which the Austrians expected British forces, the force was eventually abandoned and routed at Grenoble by Grouchy and a young cavalry commander, Robert Legrange. The battle would mark the first engagement on French soil in nearly a decade and would also mark the high-water mark of the Coalition - shortly after Grenoble, Napoleon routed Russian forces at Petrograd, the Duke of Wellington was killed in Spain and the Grand Army launched its unexpected surprise attack against Aus
