In 1565, defended by knights of the Order of Malta, Italians and Spanish, it bravely resisted for weeks the bombardment and attack of the Turkish forces of Mustafa Pasha.
Very few of its defenders were able to escape, after killing more than 4,500 Turks and giving the Christian forces precious time to fortify themselves and resist until the arrival of Spanish relief troops.
