The Monte Settepani order of battle is a detailed list of the Austrian and French forces that fought in the Battle of Monte Settepani from 24 June to 7 July 1795. The combined forces of Habsburg Austria and the Kingdom of Sardinia-Piedmont attacked the Republican French army and compelled it to retreat to a more defensible position. There are no sources for a Sardinian order of battle for 1795, so only the Austrian and French armies are listed.

Notes

Footnotes
  1. ↑ The list did not specify which of the Karlstadter Grenz regiments this was.
  2. ↑ Nafziger's list says "2/56th". Since the 2nd Battalion is already included in the 56th Line Demi-Brigade, it seems reasonable to conclude it is a typographical error for the missing "2/46th" in Miollis' brigade.
