Mühldorf: Bavaria triumphs over Habsburg
September 1322
Two rival German kings met on a dusty Bavarian plain. Louis IV of Wittelsbach captured his Habsburg cousin Frederick the Fair along with thirteen hundred knights in a brutal cavalry engagement. The victory confirmed Louis as Holy Roman Emperor and opened his decades-long fight with Pope John XXII over the limits of papal interference in imperial elections.
