The siege of Geertruidenberg was a siege of the city of Geertruidenberg that took place between 27 March and 24 June 1593 during the Eighty Years' War and the Anglo–Spanish War. Anglo-Dutch troops under the commands of Maurice of Nassau and Francis Vere laid siege to the Spanish garrisoned city. The siege was unique in that the besiegers used a hundred ships, forming a semicircle in a chain on the Mass river to form a blockade. A Spanish relief force under the command of the Count of Mansfeld was attempted in May but this was defeated and he was later forced to withdraw. Three Governors of the city were killed - after the last fatality and as a result of the failed relief, the Spanish surrendered the city on 24 June 1593. The victory earned Maurice much fame and had thus become a steadfast

  • Het Beleg van Geertruidenberg was een belegering van de stad Geertruidenberg tijdens de Tachtigjarige Oorlog onder leiding van Maurits van Nassau, de latere prins van Oranje. Na een twee maanden durende strijd gaf de stad zich op 24 juni 1593 over aan de Staatse troepen. Bij de belegering maakte Maurits gebruik van een circumvallatielinie die op water werd doorgezet met een ketting van oorlogsschepen. De overwinning zou Maurits de nodige roem bezorgen. (nl)
  • El sitio de Geertruidenberg fue un asedio a la ciudad de Geertruidenberg que tuvo lugar entre el 27 de marzo y el 24 de junio de 1593 durante la Guerra de los Ochenta Años y la Guerra Anglo-Española. Las tropas anglo-holandesas al mando de Mauricio de Nassau y Francisco Vere sitiaron la ciudad con guarnición española.​ El asedio fue único, ya que los sitiadores utilizaron un centenar de barcos, formando un semicírculo en cadena en el río Mosa para formar un bloqueo. En mayo se intentó un socorro a las tropas españolas con una fuerza bajo el mando del Conde de Mansfeld, pero fue derrotada y posteriormente se vio obligada a retirarse. Tres gobernadores de la ciudad fueron asesinados y como resultado del fallido socorro, los españoles rindieron la ciudad el 24 de junio de 1593.​​ La victoria (es)

  • L'assedio di Geertruidenberg del 1593 o terzo assedio di Geertruidenberg, fu un assedio svoltosi dal 27 marzo al 24 giugno 1593 presso la città di Geertruidenberg (attuali Paesi Bassi) nel corso della guerra degli ottant'anni. Le truppe anglo-olandesi al comando di Maurizio d'Orange e di sir Francis Vere posero assedio alla guarnigione spagnola in città. L'assedio fu unico nel suo genere in quanto gli assedianti utilizzarono un centinaio di navi per comporre un semicerchio sul fiume Mosa per imporre un blocco alla città. I rinforzi per gli spagnoli al comando di Peter Ernst I von Mansfeld-Vorderort tentarono di giungere sul posto dal mese di maggio ma questi vennero costretti poi a ritirarsi. Il governatore della città venne ucciso e poco dopo gli anglo-olandesi riuscirono a circondare la (it)
