La Haye Sainte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (567 words) |
 | La Haye Sainte is a farmhouse at the foot of an escarpment on the Charleroi-Brussels road. |
| The road leads from the La Belle Alliance, Napoleon's headquarters on the morning of the battle, through the centre of the French front line, to a cross roads on the ridge which is at the top of the escarpment and then on to Brussels. |
| During the French retreat, La Haye Sainte was recaptured by the Allies, some time before 21:00 when Blücher met Wellington at La Belle Alliance. |
