Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FRA-GAE
FRIMONT, JOHANN MARIA PHILIPP, COUNT OF PALOTA, PRINCE OF ANTRODOCCO (1759-1831) , Austrian general, entered the Austrian cavalry as a trooper in 1776, won his commission in the War of the Bavarian Succession, and took part in the Turkish wars and in the early campaigns against the French Revolutionary armies, in which he frequently earned distinction. At
Frankenthal
  in 1796 he won the
cross
  of Maria
Theresa
 . In the campaign of 'Soo he distinguished himself greatly as a cavalry leader at Marengo (14th of June), and in the next year became major-general. In the war of 18o5 he was again employed in Italy and won further renown by his gallantry at the battle of Caldiero. In 1809 he again saw active service in Italy in the rank of
lieutenant
  field
marshal
 , and in 1812 led the cavalry of Schwarzenberg's corps in the Russian campaign. He served in the campaigns of 181314 in high command, and rendered conspicuous service at Brienne-La Rothiere and at Arcis-sur-
Aube
 . In 1815 he was
commander
 -in-
chief
  of the Austrians in Italy, and his army penetrated France as far as Lyons, which was entered on the 11th of July. With the army of occupation he remained in France for some years, and in 1819 he commanded at Venice. In 1821 he led the Austrian army which was employed against the Neapolitan rebels, and by the 24th of
March
  he had victoriously entered Naples. His reward from King Ferdinand of Naples was the title of prince of Antrodocco and a handsome sum of money, and from his own master the rank of general of cavalry. After this he commanded in North Italy, and was called upon to deal with many outbreaks of the Italian patriots. He became president of the Aulic council in 183.1, but died a few months later.
