Description
Attractive view of the naval Battle of Saint-Martin de Ré, fought on 15 September 1625 between the Huguenot fleet of La Rochelle, commanded by Admiral Jean Guiton
- Admiral Benjamin de Rohan
- Duke of Soubise
and the royal French fleet, commanded by Louis XIII
- Charles de Lorraine, 4th Duke of Guise
- Henri II de Montmorency
- Admiral Willem de Zoete, Heer Haultain
resulting in a royalist victory and the re-taking of the Île de Ré by Catholic forces.
The island of Ile de Ré is at the bottom, and the town of La Rochelle is in the lower right corner. In the upper right corner, the title with a lettered key (A-P) is displayed. This view shows several of the ships of the Huguenot La Rochelle fleet, the French Catholic ships, and two of the Dutch vessels (F and G).
The Dutch participated in the siege with 20 vessels under the command of Willem de Zoete, Heer Haultain (1565 – 1637), supplied under the terms of the 1624 Franco-Dutch treaty.
The Huguenots
were members of the Protestant Reformed Church of France during the 16th and 17th centuries. The writings of John Calvin inspired French Protestants in the 1530s, and they were called Huguenots. By the end of the 17th century and into the 18th century, roughly 500,000 Huguenots had fled France.Â
They relocated to Protestant nations, such as the Dutch Republic. Some Huguenots fought in the Low Countries alongside the Dutch against Spain during the first years of the Dutch Revolt (1568–1609).
The ties between Huguenots and the Dutch Republic's military and political leadership, the House of Orange-Nassau, which existed since the early days of the Dutch Revolt, helped support the many early settlements of Huguenots in the Dutch Republics' colonies and even as far as Russia where Huguenot craftsmen could find customers at the court of the Czars.Â
The Dutch East India Company sent a few hundred to the Cape to develop the vineyards in southern Africa. About 50,000 came to England, and perhaps about 10,000 moved on to Ireland.
In February 1625, the Protestant Benjamin de Rohan, Duc de Soubise, led a Huguenot revolt against the French king Louis XIII. After publishing a manifesto, he invaded and occupied the island of Ré. He seized Ré with 300 soldiers and 100 sailors.

We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century.
