The Ottoman campaign of 1529, led by Suleiman I, aimed to capture Vienna and consolidate Ottoman control over Hungary. It was launched in response to Ferdinand I's assault on Ottoman Hungary and to support John Szapolyai's claim to the Hungarian throne. The campaign saw the surrender of Buda and the installation of Szapolyai as King of Hungary before Suleiman reached Vienna on 27 September.
