The siege and second sack of Sandomierz took place in 1259-1260 during the second Mongol invasion of Poland. The city was razed and residents massacred. Sandomierz, the most important city of southeastern medieval Kingdom of Poland, and the second largest city of Lesser Poland, was captured by the invaders on February 2, 1260. The Mongol and Ruthenian armies completely destroyed the city, murdering almost all residents, including 49 Dominican friars with their abbot Sadok, who hid in the St. Jacob church.
