Battle context
Fought on the Mincio River during the War of the Second Coalition, Pozzolo resulted in a French victory that forced the Austrian army under Bellegarde to fall back to Treviso. The defeat compelled Austria to sign the Armistice of Treviso, a truce that directly preceded the Treaty of Lunéville and Austria's withdrawal from the war. With Austrian casualties exceeding twice French losses, the battle effectively ended active campaigning in the Italian theater and settled the broader coalition conflict on terms favorable to France.
