The Battle of Lewes 1264

The Battle of Lewes, which took place on May 14, 1264, was a crucial conflict in the Second Barons' War. Simon de Montfort led the rebellious barons against King Henry III. Despite being outnumbered, de Montfort's forces achieved a significant victory, capturing King Henry and his son, Prince Edward.
