Diederich Arend von[d] Rosenberg or Andrei Grigoryevich Rosenberg (Russian: Андре́й Григо́рьевич Ро́зенберг, romanizedAndréy Grigór'yevič Rózenberg; 1739 – 7 September 1813[e]) was an Imperial Russian general who led troops against Ottoman Turkey, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and Republican France. During the War of the Second Coalition he capably led an army corps under the famous Alexander Suvorov at Cassano, Bassignana and the Trebbia. In addition, his advance guard fought at Gavi when pursuing retreating French troops after the Battle of Novi. During Suvorov's Swiss campaign, Rosenberg's column took the Oberalp Pass around Lake Oberalpsee; while in independent command,[f] he and his rearguard badly defeated a French force under André Masséna in the Battle of the Muotatal (Muottental/Muttental) on 30 September – 1 October 1799.[1][3][4]
