The siege of Santo Domingo was a major battle of the Franco-Haitian War and was fought in March 1805 at Santo Domingo, Saint-Domingue. A force of some 2,000 French Army troops led by Gen. Jean-Louis Ferrand resisted a siege of three weeks by a force of 21,000 Haitian Army troops led by Emperor Jacques I. The siege lasted until the city received naval support from six French Navy frigates.
