A Case Study of the Perfect Siege of Ath 1697
The art of siege warfare was perfected in the 17th century. Bastion forts had never been sturdier and more complex while the methods of attack became ever more standardized and increasingly effective. To be sure, sieges remained extremely diverse, but now there was a consistent thread running through them, culminating in an almost infallible method created by Sébastien Le Prestre de VaubanSebastien Le Prestre de Vauban. The great French engineer of Louis XIV demonstrated his masterful siege craft in the siege of Ath in 1697. It was considered “[…] not so much a siege as an idealized version of one.” This is quite convenient for us, because it saves us the trouble of re-constructing a typical 17th century siege in the way we’ve covered medieval and 16th century siege craft. For a better ov...

The lasting legacy of French military architect Vauban • FRANCE 24 English
He was a genius who left a lasting mark on France. As military architect to King Louis XIV, Vauban imagined a series of impregnable citadels to protect the country, from Besançon to the Ile de Ré. Each time, the architect reinvented himself to take into account the local geography and landscape. Today, many of these buildings remain key French landmarks. We take a closer look.

What are star forts? - Bastion Forts - #OddWorld
Star forts (bastion forts) come in various configurations, flavours and sizes. Some have been maintained while others have slowly disappeared into urban expansion, or have been demolished completely. This video explains what bastion forts are, in general how they work and what some of the main components are. It will tell you how and why they came to be along with what made them obsolete. Also how they differ from medieval forts.

When it comes to siege warfare there’s no getting around one name. Sebastien Le Prestre de Vauban. This French military engineer changed the face of siege warfare profoundly and lastingly. He designed the most resilient fortresses ever seen up to his times and developed a nearly infallible offensive siege routine. When Vauban entered the stage of history in the middle of the 17th century, France was in a predicament. Spain and the Dutch Republic had both honed their siege skills in the Eighty Years’ War, a conflict in which most military action consisted of sieges. The French, however, had been making little progress. Their style of assault “amounted to little more than an ill-prepared storming of the work targeted for attack” , as the expert for the French army of the Grand Siècle John Lynn puts it. Soon, headlong frontal assaults, often involving unnecessary losses, were known as attack "a la française”, “the French way”. Vauban was the man to bring about change. Not only did he bring France to eye level with its adversaries, but he in fact established a routine of the siege attack that was to remain unaltered for almost two centuries. Even the manual “Military Engineering (Part II) Attack and Defence of Fortresses” which the British took to France in WW1 was still largely based on his principles. Moreover, Vauban perfected the bastion fort and equipped the French border with a line of fortresses that repeatedly proved their worth up until Napoleon’s times. Vauban was the first military engineer ever to rise through the ranks, thereby paving the way for a professional class of military engineers. Without further ado, let’s look at how Vauban changed the face of European siege warfare.
