A coat of plates
from Hirschstein Castle at Passau, circa 1350. Preserved fragments of a Gothic coat of plates, consisting of a breastplate with four attached weapon chains, 30 plates for the protection of the lower body sides and back as well as one shoulder plate. Cleaned, perfectly conserved, excavation discovery.
The breastplate (28 x 24 cm, and 1.2 to 2 mm thick) is surrounded on the outside by thirteen flat-headed rivets for attaching it to a cloth support. In the middle of the plate, there are two of the original four ring loops with decorative iron rosettes for attaching the weapon chains. There are four weapon chains attached, two with completely preserved hooks with decorative notches. Each chain has an iron bar on the end. A star mark stamped into the reverse side.
The cambered plates are of different shapes, some still with preserved attachment rivets. There is also a fragment with a preserved bolt-shaped latch, and a heavily curved shoulder plate with an off-set rim.
Discovered in the ruins of Hirschstein Castle at Irsham, Passau District in Lower Bavaria. The fortress was in the possession of the Knight Zachreis Hader when it was destroyed in the 1367 - 1374 feud with Prince-Bishop Albert III of Passau. The pieces of armor were protected by a layer of ash in the interior of the main building. Comes with comprehensive documentation of the Hader family and Hirschstein Castle, along with photos of the pieces as they were found.
Extremely rare type of armor. Only a few, fragmentary pieces been found anywhere before now. In particular, the breastplate with the attached weapon chains had only been known from early illustrations and funerary monuments. The well-documented circumstances of the discovery are also extraordinary, allowing the piece to be placed in both time and space. This is certainly one of the most significant coat of plates remaining from the 14th century, and it will play a central role in future publications on the development of knightly protective body armour.
