WITTGENSTEIN, LUDWIG ADOLF PETER, COUNT

This article appears in Volume V28, Page 765 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: WIL-YAK
WITTGENSTEIN, LUDWIG ADOLF PETER, COUNT , prince of Sayn-
Wittgenstein
 -Ludwigsburg (17691843), Russian soldier, was descended from a family of formerly independent
counts
  in Westphalia. His father had settled in Russia, and he entered the army, distinguishing himself in the Polish War of 179495, and , then serving in the Caucasus. In 18o5, he fought at Austerlitz, in 18o6 against the Turks and in 1807 against
Napoleon
  at
Friedland
  and against the Swedes in
Finland
 . In the war of 1812 he commanded the right wing army of the Russians. In the campaign of 1813 in January he took over the command of the Russian army after Kutfizov's death. But after the defeats of the
Spring
  campaign he laid down this command and led an army corps during the Dresden and
Leipzig
  campaigns, and at Bar-sut-Aube in the 1814 campaign he was severely wounded. In 1823 he was promoted field-
marshal
 , and in 1828 he was appointed to command the Russian army in the war against Turkey. But ill health soon obliged him to retire. In 1834 the king of Prussia gave him the title of prince. He died on the 11th of June 1843.
