I believe in the 1520's and 1540's, Spain spent some time in North Africa trying to prevent Ottoman attacks on Italy. I think in 1546 they lost 150 vessels off Algiers in an aborted attempt to attack and sieze it.

After Granada fell in southern Spain, in the 1490's, North Africa was considered for the next stage of the "crusade."

Mers-el-Kebir and Oran sent envoys to the court and tried to establish good relations with Castille and Leon. The Portugese were in Ceuta since 1415.

Melillia was taken in 1497 by Medina-Sidona (a powerfull Spanish Duke). In 1505 Malaga was taken, then Mers-el-Kebir. Oran was taken in 1509. Bougie was taken in 1510.

Algiers accepted Spanish rule in 1510. Tripoli was captured in 1510.

In 1515 Spain defended Bougie with 3,000 men from Barbarossa. Seems like Khayr-al-Din/Barbarossa took Algiers away this year also (might be 1529.)

The Turks penetrated into Germany in the next 10 years and fighting was redirected to the German states.

In 1522 Barbarossa recaptured Velez de La Gomera, and the Penon Algiers in 1529. The Castillian garrison there was put to death.

La Goletta was sieged, taken and sacked by the Spanish in 1535. Tunis was also captured and Barbarossa fled.

In 1541 Spain attempted to attack Algiers from the sea. A storm blew up and 150 vessels, many small, and 12,000 men were lost. Included was the loss of 13 or 14 large galleys.

In 1552 Tlemcen was taken over by the Ottomons. In 1555, Bougie was recaptured by the Ottomons.

In 1558, an independant Spanish expedition to North Africa was wiped out.

Ilyes, thanks for the additional information about your sites. Don't worry about your english, I think it is a little better than you believe it to be. You have done very well. I'm sure that most of the people here (including myself) envy the great places that you are able to visit and hunt. Thanks for the invitation to join you on a search, if I'm ever over that way I may come visit you. You are welcome to visit here as well, but about all I can offer in my area is some hunted out American Civil War sites. Any finds would be considered modern compared to what you are finding. Thanks again for sharing.

vessel -- means "ship" / or "boat" ----misspelled (vasel) --

150 ships / boats ( 13 or 14 large galley type ---but mostly smaller type) were lost along with the about 12,000 men on them due to a big storm that hit the fleet in 1541 off Algiers.
