圣福瓦战役(法语:Bataille de Sainte-Foy)发生在1760年4月28日, 是七年战争期间的一场战事, 法国军队在弗朗索瓦·加斯顿·德·莱维斯的率领下, 打败了英军副团长詹姆斯·莫瑞的3,800人。
英军在亚伯拉罕草原之役取得决定性的胜利后, 法军于蒙特利尔重组实力; 同时因为饥饿和坏血病, 英军的战斗力下降。7个月后, 莱维斯将军带领由第一民族和加拿大民兵组成的5,000大军返回亚伯拉罕草原; 摩雷·詹姆斯知道自己的军力较弱, 但还是下令3,800人带着20门大炮出战, 而且在劣势下, 他没有等法军进攻, 就向敌人推进, 结果步兵都陷于泥淖, 法军反攻, 逼英军弃炮而逃。

By his estimates his army at Sainte-Foy numbered about 5,000, although he reported that more than 1,400 of these, including a regular brigade and his cavalry, did not participate in the action. His native allies, it seems, took no part in the fighting, although they reappeared at the end of the battle to reap their share of prisoners.[1] 互联网档案馆的存档,存档日期2006-10-10.
