The Battle of Fornovo took place 30 km southwest of the city of Parma on 6 July 1495. Despite the french successful escape, the Holy League, an alliance comprising notably the Republic of Venice, was at least able to temporarily expel the French from the Italian Peninsula. It was the first major battle of the Italian Wars.
The courage of the French during this battle was nicknamed "furia francese" by the Italians and became a popular expression.
