The Battle of the Black Mountain (also Capmany or Sierra Negra or Del Roure or Montroig) was fought from 17 to 20 November 1794 between the army of the First French Republic and the allied armies of the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Portugal. The French, led by Jacques François Dugommier defeated the Allies, who were commanded by Luis Firmín de Carvajal, Conde de la Unión. A Spanish artillery shell killed Dugommier early in the battle and Dominique Pérignon assumed command of the French army. De la Union was slain on the last day of the fighting. The French victory led to the capture of Figueres and the investment of the port of Roses (Rosas).
