Ottoman conquest of Otranto
1480–1481 invasion of southern Italy
In the summer of 1480, the Ottoman Empire invaded southern Italy, and laid siege to Otranto, finally capturing it on 11 August. This was their first outpost in Italy. According to a traditional account, more than 800 inhabitants were beheaded after the city had been captured, because they would not renounce their Christian faith. The Martyrs of Otranto are still celebrated in Italy.
