Philip Florinus of Sulzbach

Philip Florinus of Pfalz-Sulzbach (Sulzbach, 20 January 1630 – Nürnberg, 4 April 1703) was an imperial field marshal.

Philip was the youngest son of Augustus, Count Palatine of Sulzbach (1582–1632) and Hedwig of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorf (1603–1657).

Then he joined the Swedish army and fought under King Charles X Gustav of Sweden against Prussia, and later in the Dano-Swedish War (1658–1660), where he lost the disastrous Battle of Nyborg on Fünen and had to save his own life by fleeing at night.

But he left Venice again in 1662 after internal struggles and now entered in the service of the Habsburg Emperor.

He played an important role as Field Marshal and overall commander of the Cavalry in the successful Battle of Saint Gotthard (1664).
