The Siege of Kolberg took place between August and December 1761 in Kolberg, Brandenburg-Prussian Pomerania during the Seven Years' War. Russians forces besieged and captured the city from the Prussians, after two previous sieges starting in 1759 had been unsuccessful. As a conseuence, Prussia had lost her last major port on the Baltic Coast. Many saw the loss of Kolberg foreshadowing the total collapse of the Prussian war effort, though this did not prove to be the case.
