The Capture of Serampore (Danish: Overtagelsen af Frederiksnagore), also commonly known as the Second Capture of Serampure (Den anden overtagelse af Frederiksnagore), was a siege and capture of the Danish colony of Serampore by British forces on 28 January 1808. The Danes capitulated immediately after the arrival of the British, as the latter's forces were far superior.
