The Battle of Castillon was fought on 17 July 1453 in Gascony near the town of Castillon-sur-Dordogne (later Castillon-la-Bataille), between the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of France.
The English commander John Talbot, 1st Earl of Shrewsbury, led his army into a fortified French encampment without waiting for reinforcements. Talbot then refused to withdraw even after realizing the strength of the French position, causing his men to suffer extensive casualties from the French artillery.
The battle resulted in the English losing almost all their holdings in France - especially Gascony (Aquitaine), an English possession for the previous three centuries. It is regarded as a decisive French victory and marked the end of the Hundred Years' War.
