#MedievalHistory #Umayyads #CharlesMartel

Tours, 732 – few places and dates ring so vividly in history. After the Umayyad conquest of Spain, the Emirs of Cordoba began probing the realm of the Franks. However, the Umayyads would come up against Charles Martel, the Hammer. Leading his battlehardened Franks, Martel would face the mighty Umayyads at the legendary battle of Tours. In this documentary, we explore this incredible moment in medieval history.
