Siege of Grave (1674)
Part of the Franco-Dutch War of 1672 to 1678
The siege of Grave took place from 25 July to 27 October in 1674 during the Franco–Dutch War of 1672 to 1678, when a Dutch army captured the Dutch fortress town of Grave in what is now North Brabant. Grave had been occupied by the French since the summer of 1672 when an army under Turenne forced the town to surrender.
