The Hungarian campaign of 1527–1528 was launched by Ferdinand I, Archduke of Austria and King of Hungary and Bohemia, against the Ottoman Turks after the Battle of Mohács. Taking advantage of the Ottoman withdrawal, Ferdinand sought to enforce his claim as King of Hungary. He drove back the Ottoman vassal John Zápolya and captured Buda, Győr, Komárom, Esztergom, and Székesfehérvár by 1528.
