Siege of Astorga

The Siege of Astorga was an attempt by French forces to capture Astorga, Spain in a campaign of the Peninsular War.

For several weeks no attack took place, as neither side had artillery enough to fight well. Shortly after the French guns arrived, however, a hole was made in the wall and the city fell shortly thereafter.
