The Capture of Kumasi or the Burning of Kumasi occurred between 4 and 6 February 1874 as the final action of the Third Anglo-Ashanti War in Kumasi, the capital of the Asante Empire. British forces commanded by Sir Garnet Wolseley took the city without resistance and started a massive punitive action including the demolition of the Aban royal palace and burning down of a huge part of the city.
