The siege of Adrianople in 813 was a part of the wars of the Byzantine Empire with the Bulgarian khan Krum. It began soon after the Byzantine field army was defeated in the battle of Versinikia on June 22. At first the besieging force was commanded by Krum's brother (whose name is not mentioned in the primary sources). The khan himself went on with an army to Constantinople.

  • The siege of Adrianople in 813 was a part of the wars of the Byzantine Empire with the Bulgarian khan Krum. It began soon after the Byzantine field army was defeated in the battle of Versinikia on June 22. At first the besieging force was commanded by Krum's brother (whose name is not mentioned in the primary sources). The khan himself went on with an army to Constantinople. After an unsuccessful Byzantine attempt murder him ruined all prospects for negotiations with them, Krum ravaged much of Eastern Thrace and then turned against Adrianople which was still under siege. The city - one of the most important Byzantine fortresses in Thrace - held out for a while despite being attacked with siege engines. Yet, without any help from outside, the garrison was forced to capitulate due to starvation. On Krum's order the population of Adrianople and the surrounding area (numbering about 10,000) was transferred to Bulgarian territory north of the Danube. Under the peace treaty, concluded in 815, Adrianople remained in the Byzantine empire.
  • La deuxième bataille d'Andrinople, ou bataille de Versinikia est une cuisante défaite des forces byzantines de l'empereur Michel I Rangabé face aux forces bulgares dirigées par Kroum le 22 juin 813. Les origines de cette bataille se trouve dans la défaite de Nicéphore I en 811 contre Kroum. Ce dernier après sa victoire décide d'attaquer les ports de la mer Noire s'emparant de Develt dans le Golfe de Bourgas. Peu après les Bulgares envahissent la Thrace dont les habitants s'enfuirent. L'empereur Michel ne pouvant combattre accepta la proposition de paix de Kroum, mais, celui-ci exigeait le retour des transfuges qui se trouvaient dans les deux armées provoqua un conseil de guerre byzantin qui refusa cette condition. Kroum repartit donc en guerre ainsi que Michel qui créa une armée constituée des thèmes d'Asie et d'Europe. Mais l'indiscipline de ses troupes conduisirent au désastre d'Andrinople plus terrible encore que la défaite de 811. Trahi par les stratèges des thèmes d'Asie, Michel Rangabé s'enfuit vers Constantinople où Léon V l'Arménien fut élu empereur. Cette bataille ne doit pas être confondue avec celle de 378 qui opposa Valens aux Ostrogoths.
  • La battaglia di Adrianopoli, fu combattuta il 22 giugno del 813 tra bizantini e bulgari: l'esercito bizantino era guidato dal basileus Michele I, mentre l'esercito bulgaro era guidato dal khan Krum. La battaglia fu una netta sconfitta dei bizantini, che permise alle forze bulgare di dilagare nei territori imperiali, saccheggiando le provincie danubiane, fino ad arrivare a Costantinopoli.
