Notes
| 1 | A third major road, shown on many maps of this battlefield, which runs straight out of Magdeburg before turning north to Burg was not in fact built until 1819. |
|---|---|
| 2 | Grenier had also been in command of the whole of XI Corps since its commander, Gouvion St-Cyr, reurned to France sick with typhus on March 10th. It appears that battlefield command of the 35th division may have fallen to General Grundler, XI Corps chief of staff. |
| 3 | Nafziger gives a different deployment for some of the the French divisions, placing Charpentier, Chastel and Bordesoulle at Wahlitz in addition to Lagrange's division. |
