During the Middle Ages, Constantinople was attacked a number of times by both Christian and Muslim armies. It fell to crusaders of the Fourth Crusade in 1203, despite the fact that their doing so meant excommunication from the pope. In 1261, the Byzantine Greeks retook the city and reestablished it as the capital of the Byzantine Empire. It was finally taken by the Ottoman Turks in 1453.
