The siege of Candia was characterized by a struggle for supplies at sea, a war of attrition on land and an unprecedented intensity of mine warfare. The siege was part of the Cretan War in which Candia was the last major stronghold on the island to remain in the hands of the Venetian Republic. This is how contemporary historiography recounts the staggering siege of Candia.
