When Denmark sided with the Netherlands against France and Sweden, Charles XI of Sweden suffered several heavy defeats at sea, but beat the Danes at Lund (December 1676) then met them again in a bloody encounter at Landskrona, northwest of Malmo. The Danes were defeated with over 3,000 killed, but the war dragged on while Charles continued campaigning in Germany.
