Limerick, in western Ireland was the scene of two sieges during the Irish Confederate Wars. The second and largest of these took place during the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland in 1650–51. Limerick was one of the last fortified cities held by an alliance of Irish Irish Confederates and Royalists against the forces of the English Parliament. Its garrison, led by Hugh Dubh O'Neill, surrendered to Henry Ireton after a protracted and bitter siege. Over 2,000 soldiers of Cromwell's New Model Army were killed at Limerick, and Henry Ireton, Cromwell's son-in-law, died of plague.

  • Limerick, en el oeste de Irlanda fue el escenario de dos asedios durante las Guerras confederadas. El segundo y más importante tuvo lugar durante la estancia de Cromwell en 1650–51. Limerick era una de las últimas ciudades fortificadas en posesión de los Católicos confederados y los Realistas contra las fuerzas del Parlamento inglés. Su guarnición, mandada por Hugh Dubh O'Neill, se rindió a Henry Ireton después de un asedio largo y duro. Más de 2,000 soldados del Ejército New Model inglés perdieron la vida en Limerick, y Henry Ireton, yerno de Cromwell, murió a causa de la peste. (es)
