The '''Siege of Montreal''' took place at the end of the [[French and Indian War]] in 1760. After the decisive British victory on the [[Battle of the Plains of Abraham|Plains of Abraham]] in 1759, British General [[Jeffrey Amherst, 1st Baron Amherst|Jeffrey Amherst]] coordinated the convergence of three British armies upon French-controlled Montréal. French governor [[Pierre François de Rigaud, Marquis de Vaudreuil-Cavagnal|Marquis de Vaudreuil]] instructed [[François Gaston de Lévis, Duc de Lévis|François Gaston de Lévis]] to surrender the indefensible city. French rule in North America had come to an end.
