A few weeks after his defeat in the Battle of Aspern (Vienna), Napoleon rearranged his troops to fight the Marchfeld and the way north. This led to the Battle of Wagram on July 5 and 6, 1809.
Napoleon had his headquarters near Raasfeld. From there he had the best overview of the battlefield between Aderklaa and Marktgrafneusiedl. The French troops won. On the road from Deutsch-Wagram to Rassdorf stands a monument to the side, slightly elevated. It marks the location of the headquarters of the French emperor.
