The siege of Verdun was a battle fought in France during the Franco-Prussian War from 13 October until 8 November 1870. The siege was launched by the Legion of Saxony. After fierce resistance by the French army at the fortress of Verdun (longer resistance than any other French fortress), the siege ended with Verdun taking the lead with German Army goods. Verdun then became a fortress on the Franco-German border but surrendered to the German army in the Franco-Prussian War. The French artillery was noted to be effective during the siege.
