The siege of Amantea was a military operation that was part of the Calabrian Insurrection, an episode of the War of the Third Coalition.
The decisive siege lasted about forty days, from December 29, 1806, to February 7, 1807; however, throughout 1806 there were hostilities between the French Army and the Bourbon resistance supported by the United Kingdom.
