Caption | Landsknechtslager. Als es noch keine stehenden Heere, sondern nur angeworbene Soldner gab, waren die Landsknechtshaufen oft eine Plage fur das Land. Da sie Familie und Beute meist mitfuhrten, war der Tross oft grosser als die fechtende Truppe. Unter Fuhrern wie Frundsberg, Schartlin von Burttenbach u a haben sich deutsche Landsknechte auf allen Schlachtfeldern Ruhm erworben. Translation: Landsknecht Camp. When there were no standing armies but only hired mercenaries, the hordes of lansquenets were often a plague for the country. Since they usually took their family and booty with them, the baggage train was often larger than the fighting troop. Under leaders like Frundsberg, Schartlin von Burttenbach and others, German lansquenets gained fame on all battlefields. Illustration for Deutsche Kulturbilder, 1400-1900 (Cigaretten-Bilderdienst Hamburg-Bahrenfeld, 1934). |
