The Ottoman–Venetian War of 1537–1540 was one of the numerous Ottoman–Venetian Wars of the period. The Ottoman Emperor Suleiman the Magnificent had been angered by a treaty signed between the Republic of Venice and the Habsburg Empire of Charles V. One of the main events of the war was the Siege of Corfu (1537), and the decisive Battle of Preveza on 28 September 1538.

It was followed by the Siege of Castelnuovo in 1539.[1]

A treaty or "Capitulation" was signed between Venice and the Ottoman Empire to end the war on 2 October 1540.
