Ottoman invasion of Otranto : ウィキペディア英語版
Ottoman invasion of Otranto

The Ottoman invasion of Otranto occurred between 1480 and 1481 at the Italian city of Otranto in Apulia, southern Italy. Forces of the Ottoman Empire invaded and laid siege to the city and its citadel. After capture, more than 800 of its inhabitants – who refused to convert to Islam – were executed. The Martyrs of Otranto are still celebrated in Italy. A year later the Ottoman garrison surrendered the city following a siege by Christian forces.
==Background==
The attack on Otranto was part of an abortive attempt by the Ottomans to invade and conquer Italy. In the summer of 1480, a force of nearly 20,000 Ottoman Turks under the command of Gedik Ahmed Pasha invaded southern Italy. The first part of the plan was to capture the port city of Otranto. After it fell, its garrison and inhabitants were executed or sold into slavery. In response, Pope Sixtus IV issued his second call for a Crusade. Several Christian monarchs responded with military support.
In May 1481, a Christian army composed of Neapolitans and Hungarians besieged Otranto. Two days after the siege began, Sultan Mehmed II died. The resulting succession crisis prevented the Turks from sending further reinforcements to Italy. Otranto was retaken from the Ottomans.
