More than 500 years ago, a noble blood knight from a Franconian family Schott owned armor manufactured in Nuremberg’s armory. The name of the knight was Kunst Schott von Hellingen. He died at 1526, but his armor was preserved. The armor was made between 1490 and 1497 years. At that time Schott and forty other Knights owned a large castle in Rottenburg. Just like Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. 🙂 In fact, they were professional mercenaries who offered their services to the barons of southern Germany in their internecine wars. Except knights at the castle, there were about five hundred soldiers.
