The siege of the city and citadel of Tournai took place from April 25 to June 19, 1745, and was part of the War of the Austrian Succession. The French besieging troops were commanded by Marshal de Saxe, while their opponent was the Dutch fortress commander Johan Adolf Van Dorth along with his defenders. As a result of the siege, the Dutch were forced to surrender and relinquish the fortress to the French.
