Siege of Berat (1455) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Siege of Berat (1455)
The Siege of Berat began July, 1455〔''Scanderbeg: From Ottoman Captive to Albanian Hero'' by Harry Hodgkinson, page 134〕 at the Albanian city of Berat, when the Albanian army of Skanderbeg besieged the fortress held by Ottoman forces. ==Background== When Skanderbeg began his rebellion, Berat belonged to the Albanian prince Theodore Muzaka. When in 1449 Theodore Muzaka was dying he sent for Skanderbeg to take over the castle in the name of League of Lezhë. Skanderbeg sent an Albanian detachment led by Pal Kuka, to claim the castle. In the meantime a force of Ottoman soldiers came from their garrison in Gjirokastër, quietly scaled the poorly guarded walls of Berat at night, slaughtered the Albanian garrison of about 500 soldiers, hanged the dying Theodore Muzaka and claimed the castle, while the captain Pal Kuka was later ransomed.〔Fan Stylian Noli, 1947〕 Berat was located on an important strategic position as it controlled much of southern Albania as well as the vital supply routes leading to southern Macedonia and Greece.
