Magdalena Moons was famous for her role during the Dutch war of liberation, when she saved the city of Leiden during its first siege by Spain in 1574. Moons was a Catholic, the daughter of the judge Pieter Moons. She promised the 30-year older Spanish commander, Francisco de Valdez (1511-1580), to marry him if he stopped Spanish attacks on the starving city for a while, as her relatives were there, with the result that reinforcements were given time to arrive and the siege was broken.
