The Largest Cavalry Charge in History: The Battle of Vienna

Largest cavalry charge in history. It today’s modern battlefield of clanking gears, thumping rotors, and noxious fumes, it can be difficult to imagine a time where you only had to worry about the noxious fumes as it pertained to military vehicles. But that was the way it was for much of human history. For most of human civilization, if you wanted to dominate the battlefield you had to have one thing. The horse. The Winged Hussars originally started out as Serbian mercenary units back in the late 1400’s to early 1500s. They made much of their name fighting against Ottoman raids into Europe, so outside of Vienna in 1683 was far from the first time these two forces have come face to face. Once Subieski took charge in Poland, the Hussars became the elite calvary of the Polish army and membership was restricted down to just the Polish nationality. The horses were especially bred to be exceptionally fearless, fast, and agile. The Polish thought so highly of their hassar horses that it became legal code to enact the death penalty to anybody that sold one. The knights on the backs of these fearful steeds were loaded down with a variety of weaponry. Welcome to Rad History!
