Summary
The Mongols destroyed Baghdad in 1258, ending the Islamic Golden Age. The Abbasid Caliphate, weakened politically and militarily, underestimated the Mongol threat. After a brutal siege, the city was pillaged, resulting in massive casualties and the loss of countless manuscripts. This devastation marked the end of a significant era in history.
