TheBattle of Sablat orZáblatí occurred on 10 June 1619, during theBohemian period of theThirty Years' War. The battle was fought between a Roman CatholicImperial army led byCharles Bonaventure de Longueval, Count of Bucquoy and the Protestant army ofErnst von Mansfeld.
When Mansfeld was on his way to reinforce general Hohenlohe, who was besiegingČeské Budějovice, Bucquoy intercepted Mansfeld near the small village of Záblatí (German:Sablat), about 25 km (16 mi) km northwest ofČeské Budějovice, and brought him to battle. Mansfeld suffered defeat, losing at least 1,500 infantry and his baggage train. As a result, the Bohemians had to lift the siege of České Budějovice.
