27 de mai. de 2024 · Jean Lannes, duc de Montebello (born April 10/11, 1769, Lectoure, France—died May 31, 1809, Vienna, Austrian Empire) was a French general who, despite his humble origins, rose to the rank of marshal of the First Empire.

Jean Lannes, bound out as an apprentice dyer, ran away to join the army of the Revolution. Always eager for action and leading from the front, he was much wounded and much promoted. Napoleon revered him.
