Victor-Maurice, comte de Broglie

Victor-Maurice, comte de Broglie (12 March 16474 August 1727), was a French soldier and general.

The son of François-Marie, comte de Broglie, he served under Condé, Turenne, and other commanders of the age of Louis XIV in the Dutch War and other conflicts.

He was named maréchal de camp in 1676, lieutenant-general in 1688, and finally marshal of France in 1724, just three years before his death.

He had three sons, one of which predeceased him. The second son, Charles-Guillaume, marquis de Broglie , was his heir, while the third son, François-Marie, a general and a marshal of France like his father, became the first duc de Broglie.
