Siege of Smederevo (1439)
Part of the Ottoman conquest of the Balkans
The fall of Smederevo was the Ottoman capture of the capital of the Serbian Despotate on 18 August 1439. Ottoman forces led by Sultan Murad II besieged Smederevo from early June, defended by Grgur Branković and Thomas Kantakouzenos. After a three-month siege and continuous artillery bombardment, the starving garrison surrendered. The fall of the city brought the temporary end of the Serbian Despotate.
