Ottoman Empire - Great Siege of Malta
Time: Tuesday May 18, 1565
Place: Malta
Details: It was startling, if mostly symbolic, blow to the image of Ottoman invincibility, an image which the victory of the Knights of Malta against the Ottoman invaders in the 1565 Siege of Malta had recently set about eroding.
