Description
The Black Brunswickers (German: Schwarze Schar) were a volunteer corps raised by German-born Frederick William, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (1771–1815) to fight in the Napoleonic Wars.
The Duke was a harsh opponent of Napoleon Bonaparte's occupation of his native Germany.
Formed in 1809 when war broke out between the First French Empire and the Austrian Empire, the corps initially comprised a mixed force, around 2,300 strong, of infantry, cavalry and later supporting artillery.
Distinctively attired in black broadcloth with a silvered death's head badge on their hats, the volunteers were nicknamed the Black Legion.
