The Battle of Austerlitz (French: Bataille d’Austerlitz, Czech: Bitva u Slavkova, Russian: Битва под Аустерлицем), also called the Battle of the Three Emperors, although the Austrian Emperor Franz I was not present on the battlefield, took place on Monday, December 2, 1805, exactly one year after the imperial coronation of Napoleon I in Paris. It is one of the most famous battles of the Napoleonic Wars. At Pratzeberg between Brünn (Czech: Brno) and Austerlitz (Czech: Slavkov u Brna) in Moravia, Emperor Napoleon I of France defeated an alliance of Austrian and Russian troops - the latter under Emperor Alexander I.
