The Second Battle of Nola was fought in 215 BC between Hannibal's army and a Roman force under Marcus Claudius Marcellus. It was Hannibal's second attempt——to seize Nola after a failure the year before. He was again repelled. And would make one more, also unsuccessful attempt the next year. For the "Romans," it was a crucial success against Hannibal's army and "gave them hope that they could win the war."
