Siege of Hennebont

From Warlike

Q3485824




The siege of Hennebont took place between late May and late June 1342 when the forces of Charles of Blois conducted an unsuccessful siege of the fortified port of Hennebont, commanded by Joanna of Montfort. The conflict was a part of the Breton Civil War, a dynastic dispute between two claimants to the Duchy of Brittany which had broken out the previous year. A complicating factor was the pre-existing Hundred Years' War between France and England. Philip VI of France was supporting Charles of Blois, his nephew; Edward III of England had promised military assistance to Joanna, the wife of the rival claimant, John of Montfort. A truce between France and England was in place when the siege started but it expired in June.
