Montebello della Battaglia is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Pavia in the Italian region Lombardy, located about 50 km south of Milan and about 20 km south of Pavia.

It is famous for two battles: in that of 1800 the French army under Jean Lannes defeated an Austrian army; that of 1859, part of the Austro-Sardinian War (or Second Italian War of Independence) was a victory of the armies of France and Savoy, again over the Austrians (the attribute "della Battaglia", meaning "of the Battle", refers to the latter).
