El Setge de Cardona de l'any 1711 Authors Francesc Serra i Sellarés Abstract The siege of Cardona in Catalonia was one of the most significant events in the War of the Spanish Succession. The purpose of this article is to reconstruct, using various original texts and documents from both sides of the conflict, the development of a siege that ended up with a great battle between the armies of twelve different nationalities grouped into two alliances: the Bourbon army (French, Spanish and Irish troops) and the Allied Habsburg army (mainly British, German, Austrian, Dutch, Portuguese and Catalan combatants). This article also aims to provide an overview of the implications and significance of the siege in terms of international politics in the early eighteenth century and in terms of the events that helped to prolong the war by three years, as well as the prospects of a Habsburg victory.
