The shield, an emblematic symbol of the Middle Ages, has marked European military history from the 11th to the 14th century. Its distinctive elongated and triangular shape, often topped with a rounded part, made it a formidable defense tool, particularly suited for cavalry combat. Used by knights and soldiers, the shield combined effective protection and heraldic representation, playing a crucial role both tactically and symbolically.
Traditionally made of wood covered with leather or fabric, sometimes reinforced with metal, the shield offered an optimal balance between lightness and robustness. Its ingenious design allowed it to deflect blows while protecting a large part of the fighter's body. More than just a shield, it also served as a support for coats of arms, facilitating identification on the battlefield and reinforcing the knightly identity.
