	Bernhard of Saxe-Weimar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden landed in Germany Bernhard quickly joined him, and for a short time he was colonel of the Swedish life guard of horse.
		After the battle of Breitenfeld he accompanied Gustavus in his march to the Rhine and, between this event and the battle of the Alte Veste, Bernhard commanded numerous expeditions in almost every district from the Moselle to Tyrol.
		At the Alte Veste he displayed the greatest courage, and at the Battle of Lützen (1632), when Gustavus was killed, Bernhard assumed the command, killed a colonel who refused to lead his men to the charge, and finally by his furious energy won the victory at sundown.

		Alte Veste 1632 - The late summer saw the Swedish besieged by Wallenstein at Nürnberg.
		As the supply situation worsened, the impetuous King attacked the Imperial camp at the Alte Veste "Old Fortress"- a derelict castle atop a wooded hill that would then allow the Swedish guns to dominate the Imperial camp.
		The Imperials were prepared with trenches and an abatis that stymied the Swedish advance.

		The only result, however, was that Wallenstein fell back a few hundred yards on to two ridges, on one of which was the ruined castle called the Alte Veste; the other was known as the Altenburg.
		The troops of Duke Bernhard of Weimar, among whom were still the Scottish regiments of Hamilton and Douglas, marched against the heights which commanded the Alte Veste, and drove back the Imperialists with great loss.
		The news was brought down to Gustavus of the advantage gained by Duke Bernhard, but he was unable to take advantage of it by moving his army round to that position, as he would have exposed himself to a counter attack of the enemy while doing so.

		His threat to Nürnberg forced Gustav to leave Bavaria in order to relieve the city.
		His attack on Wallenstein's entrenchments on the Alte Veste—an operation that probably no other contemporary commander would have attempted—was unsuccessful, and for the next few weeks there followed a tense war of maneuver that ended when Gustav fell upon Wallenstein's army at Lützen (Nov. 6, 1632) as it was dispersing to winter quarters.
		Morning mist robbed Gustav of the advantage of surprise and gave Wallenstein time to reunite his forces.

		On the morning of the 3rd the attack upon the heights on the northern side of the camp began.
		The chief point of attack and defence was the alte Veste, a ruined castle in the middle of a clearance of the wood which had been specially fortified by the Wallensteiners ; thrice the Swedes entered it, and thrice they were ejected from its walls.
		The struggle continued caldissimamente, in Wallenstein's phrase, till darkness and the fall of rain rendered its continuance on the part of the Swedes impossible.
