Siege of Saint-Pierre-le-Moûtier

1429 battle of the Armagnac–Burgundian Civil War

The siege of Saint-Pierre-le-Moûtier was a venture of the so-called Lancastrian War. The small town was, however, heavily fortified and surrounded by a deep moat. According to Joan of Arc's bodyguard, Jean d'Aulon, the initial assault failed and the retreat was sounded. Joan managed to initiate a second assault, which, according to d'Aulon, was met 'without much resistance'.
