Shalom JTF,
It's the 467. years of the siege of Eger. 1552. The Ottoman Turks wanted to capture the most important fortress of Hungary, but they lost. 200 000 Turks vs 2000 Hungarians.
The Siege of Eger occurred during the 16th Century Ottoman Wars in Europe. It was a major Hungarian victory after a series of crushing defeats at the hands of Turkish forces and checked the Ottoman expansion into both Central Europe and Eastern Europe. However, it remained a small encounter in a war that the Hungarians under the House of Habsburg were struggling to maintain.
Women also fought against the Islamic horde.
