Throughout the Middle Ages warfare in western Europe revolved around fortified places. Castles and walled towns controlled large parts of their surroundings. The garrisons, especially the cavalry, had a large operational range within which they could protect, enforce, attack, ravage, and forage. If an invading force was seriously looking for victory, these fortified centers of resistance needed to be dealt with first. Castles and walled towns, however, were designed not to be taken easily. So, as an attacker, how should you deal with them? While there are several ways to conquer a medieval fortress, in this video we will focus on sieges. Here is a nine-step guide on how to lay siege to a medieval Fortress.
