The Battle of Ingolstadt (German: Schlacht bei Ingolstadt) of 1546 was a short-lived siege commitment by the Protestant forces of the Schmalkaldic League directed against the smaller imperial Catholic troops consisting of the locals from the town itself and the surrounding Bavarian countryside. It resulted in the withdrawal of the Schmalkaldeners.
