Join host David Hale as he explores the fascinating world of medieval war horses in this compelling episode of Horses Through History. Discover the truth behind the legendary destriers - the powerful horses that carried knights into battle across medieval Europe from the 11th to 15th centuries. Learn about the extensive breeding programs, training methods, and enormous costs associated with these military assets that were valued as much as small estates. Contrary to popular belief, destriers were not massive draft horses but agile, intelligent animals bred specifically for speed, maneuverability, and courage in combat. The episode examines historical records showing how these horses were trained to fight alongside their riders, responding to leg pressure while knights wielded weapons. Explore the gradual decline of heavy cavalry as military technology evolved, and discover how medieval war horse bloodlines influenced modern warmblood breeds. Through monastery records and archaeological evidence, this episode reveals the complex reality behind the romanticized image of knights and their steeds. Perfect for history enthusiasts, horse lovers, and anyone interested in medieval warfare and the evolution of military tactics in Europe.
