The Siege of Minorca was a siege of Fort St. Philip during the Seven Years War. This contributed to the Declaration of War on 18 May, 1756. A French force of 15,000 (led by Duke de Richelieu) laid siege to a smaller garrison of 2,000 British led by William Blakeney). This siege resulted in a French victory.
