Bombardment of Algiers
From Warlike
Q2909585
The bombardment of Algiers in 1682 was a naval operation by France against the Regency of Algiers during the Franco–Algerian war (1681–1688). Louis XIV sent Duquesne to bombard Algiers after the Dey declared war on France in 1681. Duquesne sailed from Toulon with a fleet of around forty vessels and reached Algiers in July 1682 after many delays caused by poor weather. Bombarded several times in August, the city suffered extensive damage. The danger of the corsair captains who managed to manoeuvre their ships so as to threaten the French position and bad weather forced Duquesne to retreat to French waters.
