The Battle of Bornhöved or Bornhöft was a battle on 7 December 1813 between Swedish cavalry and Danish troops reinforced by smaller numbers of Polish cavalry and German infantry. It occurred at the small village of Bornhöft in what is now Schleswig-Holstein in north Germany. Crown prince Charles John led a division of the northern armies, including the Mörners husarregemente (later the Kronprinsens husarregemente), under the command of the commander of the Swedish cavalry Anders Fredrik Skjöldebrand, to pursue the retreating Danish army. The idea was for the Swedish cavalry to advance in parallel to the Danes until general Wallmoden could cut off their retreat and force the outmaneouvred Danes to surrender. Charles John had been very economical with Swedish forces throughout the war and deliberately held back to allow the allies to take huge losses whilst he held onto the Swedish forces for future use. The Swedish cavalry thus felt leftout of all the war's previous major battles and so decided to disobey their orders and ride straight against the Danish forces.
