Batalla de San Lorenzo

The Battle of San Lorenzo was a significant confrontation during the early stages of Argentina's independence movement on February 3, 1813. Argentine patriot forces, led by General José de San Martín, fought Spanish royalist troops to defend the region of San Lorenzo. Despite being outnumbered, San Martín’s forces successfully repelled the Spanish, boosting local morale and securing a strategic victory. This battle is considered a crucial step in the broader struggle for independence from Spain, demonstrating tactical skill and leadership that would later influence San Martín's role in South America's liberation.
