The Raid on Quistello was a raid and meeting engagement in which the Austrians encountered the Piedmontese and French during the War of the Polish Succession on 15 September 1734. The military engagement took place in the area between Quistello and San Benedetto Val di Sambro in Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy, on the left bank of the Secchia, about 28 kilometres (17 mi) north of Guastalla. Historian Gaston Bodart also referred to it as the Treffen bei Quistello, 'Battle of Quistello'.
