During the thirteenth and fifteenth centuries, pirate and corsair activities were frequent on the southern coasts of the Kingdom of Valencia (Spain). Christians attacked Muslims, Muslims attacked Christians, and Christians attacked each other. In August 1449, a ship from Mallorca arrived at Orihuela coast and launched a surprise attack against the tower of Cap de Cerver and the Oriolan coasts, obtaining all goods kept in the tower as booty together with seven men. The objective of this article was to make the attack known, contextualise it, and publish hitherto unreleased documents on this piracy episode.
