The Siege of Savannah (16 September to 20 October 1779) was a significant engagement in the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783). Hoping to retake Savannah, Georgia, which had fallen to the British the previous year, a Franco-American force laid siege to the city. Their efforts culminated in a failed assault on 9 October, after which the allies abandoned the siege.
