| This print by Romeyn de Hooghe (1645-1708) shows the siege of the city of Wismar in the duchy of Mecklenburg. |
I am not sure when hostilities commenced (possibly September) but it is the 350th this year. Lasts until 1679. So a good time to start wargaming it. Get in touch if you already do. First time I heard of it was Preben Kannik.

King Christian declared war on Sweden on the 2nd September 1675 according to Helion's "Charles XI's War" by Michael Fredholm von Essen.
