Bombardment of Tourane (1847)

1847 naval skirmish between France and Vietnam

The Bombardment of Tourane was a naval incident that took place during the short reign of the Vietnamese emperor Thiệu Trị (1841–47), which saw a considerable worsening of relations between France and Vietnam. The French frigates Gloire and Victorieuse, which had been sent to Tourane to negotiate for the release of two French Catholic missionaries, were surprise attacked by several Vietnamese vessels.
