German Knight - Ministeriales

 For the ongoing Lion Rampant campaign "Worringen 1288" I painted a Ministeriale: an unfree noble Knight holding military responsibilities.  

In Worringen he fights for a Monastery loyal to the Archbishop of Cologne. 

But this knight could be used also very far away from Germany, as a Ministeriale at the service of the Kingdom of Sicily, a castellan and judge administrating royal territories.

The model is from Mirliton Miniatures and I like especially the helm, which is a copy of an existing one form Germany. 

 



Funeral helmet of the von Pranckh family with the crest of two bullhorns:
