Categories: Mexican-American War Conflicts


The Battle of Molino del Rey (September 8, 1847) was one of the bloodiest engagements of the Mexican-American War as part of the Battle for Mexico City. It was fought in September 1847 between Mexican forces under General Antonio Léon against an American force under Major General Winfield Scott at El Molino del Rey near Mexico City. The Americans made little progress in this battle, but the Mexican forces were unable to hold them back long enough to prevent the capture of Mexico City one week later.
