The Siege of Rouen (December, 1591 – May, 1592) was an unsuccessful Henry's attempt to capture Rouen, the historical capital city of Normandy, in northern France on the River Seine (present-day Upper Normandy, France), between the combined French, English and Dutch forces of Henry IV of France, against the troops of the Catholic League of France commanded by André de Brancas, Amiral de Villars, and the Spanish forces led by Don Alexander Farnese, Duke of Parma (Spanish: Alejandro Farnesio), during the French Wars of Religion, the Eighty Years' War, and the Anglo–Spanish War (1585–1604). The city resisted until the arrival of the Spanish troops, which defeated and forced the Protestant forces to lift the siege.
