Tournai, a city in the Spanish Netherlands, was taken by France after the War of Devolution (1667-1668), in which France under Louis XIV fought the Spanish Habsburgs. Later, during the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714), England’s Duke of Marlborough besieged Tournai in his campaign against France in the Low Countries. The siege began on 27 June, the town fell to Marlborough on 3 September, allowing him to continue his successful advance on other French-held towns. The Treaty of Utrecht, which helped end the war, gave Tournai to Austria in 1713.
