Concorde suffered only one serious (i.e. fatal) incident/crash during its lifetime.
The main trigger was the crash of a Concorde in 2000; all the passengers and crew died. For some years, Concorde had been flying at a loss (even after writing off the huge development costs). After the crash, all Concordes were grounded and airlines took the commercial decision to discontinue the service.
Mostly because of landing gear failures on both take off and landing.
The concorde crashed due to a scrap of metal from a dc-10 left in the runway being sucked through the engine and creating a HUGE fireball.
