Their arrival marked the beginning of a siege characterized by an impregnable fortress, extremely determined commanders and ingenious siege craft, manifesting above all in a 1.5 km long sea-wall, a construction seemingly impossible at its time. La Rochelle was one of the major strongholds of the Huguenots, the French Protestants, and the siege marked the climax of the reformatory struggle in France. It was the centerpiece of both the third Huguenot rebellion and the Anglo-French war of 1627-29. This is how modern historiography tells the story of the staggering siege of La Rochelle.
