The Franche-Comté (Free County), now in eastern France, was passed to the Spanish when Emperor Charles V inherited the Spanish throne in 1516. It was captured by France in 1668 but returned to Spain in the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle. This print shows the battle in 1674 which resulted in France taking the territory for the second time.
