The Battle of Bléneau was a battle of the Fronde fought on April 7, 1652 near Bléneau in France between the armies of the rebel Louis II de Bourbon, Prince de Condé and the Royalist Henri de la Tour d'Auvergne, Vicomte de Turenne.
Cardinal Mazarin now found it necessary to commit d'Enghien (the later Great Condé) to the campaign to rectify the French position in Western Germany, which led to the Second Battle of Nördlingen in August, where Mercy was killed.
Ultimately passing to the Spanish kings, it became for a considerable period an object of dispute between France and Spain, until at length in 1684 it was assigned to the great Condé, a creditor of the king of Spain.
In the following year Mercy opposed the French armies, now under the Great Condé and the Vicomte de Turenne.
Anne of Forez (1358 - † 1417 at Cleppé), born Lady Anne d'Auvergne Clermont and d’Ussel, countess of Forez, wife to Louis II de Bourbon (v. 1336 - † 1410), Duke of Bourbon, gave birth to James or Jean I de Bourbon (1381 - † 1434), Duke of Auvergne.
Between 1652 and 1655 Berkeley served under Turenne in the campaigns against Condé, and the Spaniards in Flanders, accompanying the Duke of York as a volunteer.
He afterwards served under his elder half-brother, Antoine, marshal de Gramont, and the prince de Condé.
When Louis II de Bourbon, prince de Condé, because of actions during the Fronde against Absolutism, was captured by Mazarin, he took off; in 1652 he was in Stockholm, while Christina, Queen of Sweden had a lot of mental and physical problems.
At the age of seventeen Vauban joined the regiment of Condé in the war of the Fronde.
