Siege of Stralsund (1678) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Siege of Stralsund (1678)
The Siege of Stralsund was a battle between the Electorate of Brandenburg and the Swedish Empire on 10 and 11 October 1678, during the Scanian War.〔Grabinsky (2006), p.12〕 After two days of bombardment, the severely devastated Swedish fortress of Stralsund surrendered to the Brandenburgers.〔 The remainder of Swedish Pomerania was taken by the end of the year,〔Bohmbach (2003), p.298〕 yet most of the province including Stralsund was returned to Sweden by the terms of the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye and the Peace of Lund, both concluded in 1679. ==Prelude==
The Scanian War reached Swedish Pomerania when after the Battle of Fehrbellin (1675) the retreating Swedish forces were pursued by a Brandenburgian army under "Great Elector" Frederick William I's command.〔 Stralsund was one of only two major fortresses Sweden maintained in Pomerania, the other one being Stettin.〔Langer (2003), p. 397〕 After the Brandenburgian army had captured Stettin and Wolgast, Stralsund was seriously threatened.〔 In addition, Danish forces had landed on Rügen in 1677, aided by a loyal Rugian noble.〔Meier (2008), p.18〕 Thus, all buildings outside the fortifications were levelled in 1677 to strip an imminent Brandenburgian attack of cover.〔 Stralsund then held a population of 8,500, including armed burghers,〔Lorenz (2003), p.429〕 and close to 5,000 Swedish, German and Finnish foot and horse.〔Lorenz (2003), p.428〕
