The Battle of Vézeronce took place on June 25, 524 AD near Vézeronce-Curtin (then Veseruntia) in Isère, France. This battle was part of an invasion of Burgundy initiated by the four sons and successors of the Frankish king Clovis I: Childebert I, Chlodomer, Chlothar I, and Theuderic I.

History

After a previous incursion by the brothers in 523, Burgundian king, Sigismund, had been executed by the Franks, and was succeeded by his brother, Godomar. Hostilities resumed the following year. Godomar led the Burgundian army and Chlodomer was killed during the battle.Шаблон:Sfn Godomar won the battle,Шаблон:Sfn however, the kingdom was lost to the Merovingians within a decade.

A helmet was found in the peat marsh of Saint-Didier, to the north of the battle site in 1871, and is conserved in the Musée dauphinois, Grenoble. The helmet is of Byzantine craftsmanship, and was likely that of a Frankish chieftain.
