Treaty of Belgrade

June 24, 1739

Austria, defeated in a disastrous war, signed a peace with the Ottomans that returned Belgrade and northern Serbia to the Sultan. The tide that Eugene had turned at Petrovaradin had turned again. Ottoman diplomats celebrated; Vienna fumed. It would be the last significant Ottoman military success against a major European power.
