INTRODUCTION

The history of the Electorate of the Palatine, Kurpfalz, especially the military history, is hardly taken notice of today. This is probably due to the fact that the Palatine did not survive the eighteenth century as an independant power but was united with Bavaria in 1778 when the Elector Karl Theodor inherited Bavaria on the extinction of that line of the Wittelsbachs. This work is an effort to close that gap at least with regard to the War of the Spanish Succession. It was scarcely to be imagined that it would be possible to add to Oscar Bezzel’s work “Geschichte des Kurpfälzischen Heeres” but amazingly many archive documents have survived the Second World War and were retrieved and examined by Claus-Peter Golberg. Thus the graphic designs for the grenadier caps of the troops in the service of the Maritime Powers came to light. In addition the study which he and Jean Belaubre made of the flags and standards captured by the French, the “Triomphes de Louis XIV”, helped to close a part of this gap. This version of the original German document does not include the details of the archive documents since these take up a lot of space and would not be interesting to most readers. Apart from that, a translation of the old German would itself tend to falsify the statements. The tables of unit strengths at various times have also been shortened. The available documents are incomplete and sometimes contradictory. While creating the plates of uniforms and equiptment we have attempted to reconstruct them according to the existing evidence but, in the end, a lot remains left to the reader’s own judgement.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

When the lutheran House of Pfalz-Simmern died out in 1685 the Palatine fell to the catholic family of Pfalz-Neuburg and the Duke Philipp Wilhelm. It was during his short reign that it came to the infamous ravagement of the Palatine and the destruction of Heidelburg by the French army of Louis XIV in 1688-89 . Thus the Elector Johann Wilhelm inherited a land desolated by war in 1690. Johann Wilhelm, a fervent Catholic, had little trouble accepting the clause in the treaty of Ryswick ending the war on 30th October 1697, whereby, everywhere where Catholic mass had been held, even if only for a time under French occupation, it should continue to be allowed in peacetime. As a result 240 protestant churches in the Palatine had to gradually be handed over to the Catholics for parallel usage. Protestants were also obliged to observe Catholic holidays and to bow to the church processions. It was only in 1705 that the Palatine’s Protestant allies in the war of the Spanish Succession, Prussia, Hesse and the Maritine Powers, forced the Elector to sign the ”Religionsdeklaration” on 21st Nov. 1705, in which the return of the churches was promised and the persecution of Protestants ended. The Elector demonstrated his irritation by moving his residence to Düsseldorf in the Catholic Dukedom of Berg. In the Palatine his officials continued to press the last resources out of the war ravaged land. Johann Wilhelm had more success acquiring territory. On the extinction of the house of Pfalz-Veldenz in 1694 he added this legacy to his. In 1707 he acquired the whole of the County of Sponheim from Baden-Baden. Until then it had been under dual control of Baden and Kurpfalz. In 1708 he took over the parish of Ladenburg from the Bishopric of Worms. It was also in 1708 that he won back the Electoral Dignity of Hereditary Steward of the Holy Roman Empire, “Erbtruchsessenwürde”,lost to Bavaria in the 30 Years War. More builder that soldier (the palace of Bensberg and other magnificent buildings in his city of residence) allying his land with the Emperor and later with the Maritine Powers at least saved the Dukedoms of Jülich and Berg from the vagaries of war. (A part of the subsidy money went on paintings for the galery in Düsseldorf.) The original Palatine, on the other hand, suffered continually under marching and quartering of troups. The area of Neuburg suffered especially in the first war years through its proximity to the enemy Bavaria. Blenheim/Höchstädt, where two important Battles were fought in 1703 and 1704, lies in the territory of Neuburg. The Oberpfalz, which is in Bavaria, was assigned to him when his Bavarian cousin, Max-Emmanuel, was outlawed for joining the French side. But when peace arrived he had to give it back to Bavaria. Even the influence of his brother, Karl Philipp, Imperial govenour of Tyrol, on the Emperor and Prince Eugene of Savoy could not change this. Two years after the War of the Spanish Succession ended, Johann Wilhelm died and was buried in the Jesuit church in Düsseldorf. The struggle with the Maritine Powers to get the remainder of the unpaid subsidies lasted until 1723.

CURRENCIES

To aid in understanding the amounts named in the Archive documents the following is a table of exchange rates. The Palatine had three currencies: for the nether lands called Species, and for the upper lands called Curant, and Rhenish, according to[15]: 1 nether land Heller = ¾ oberländisch (upper lands) and Rhenish. 1 Kreuzer (Kr./xr.) = 8 Heller (hl. or h. ) 1 Stüber = 1 Kreuzer 4 Heller or 12 Heller 40 Stüber = 1 Gulden or 1 fl. (fl. = Florin = Gulden) 60 Stüber = 1 Reichstaler 1 Reichstaler (Tlr.) = 1 fl. 30 xr. or 90 Kreuzer 10 Reichstaler = 15 Gulden 1 fl. Rheinish = 60 Kreuzer Foreign Currencies: 1 fl. Rheinish = 1,25 fl. Holland/Dutch Guilders or “Rijksdalder” 1 fl. “ = 2 French Livres (1700-1750) 1 fl. “ = 3,5 Venetian Lire (1687) 7,5 fl. “ = 1 Pound sterling (1680‘s, in English the Reichstaler was called “Rixdollar”)

100 Reiter At the start of the war the company consisted of 150 men, at the end 174 men. In addition there were 13 Trabants (”Schweizer Trabanten”).

PROVISIONING / TRAIN

Each company had tent horses but did not own a waggon.

After 1704 an Inf. Rgt. had a Staffwaggon and each company a cart with 2 horses and 1 driver/worker for the tents.[15].

A RR had for each company a waggon with 4 horses and 2 Knechte (Driver/workers) for provisioning and forrage.

From 1706/07 onwards, the Dutch Subsidy troops had 4 horses per cart.

On 27.12.1704 the provisioning train in Imperial service consisted of 69 men and 85 horses. The Oberwagenmeister Matthias Rogowsky commanded 51 men, 149 oxen and 24 provision carts.

In 1707 two IR had: 1 Waggonmaster, 2 Staffwaggondrivers, 16 company waggondrivers.

In 1707 the RR Hatzfeld noted amongst losses: 10 drivers, 26 horses, the DR Vehlen lost 2 drivers and 24 horses.

In 1709 the staff of each battalion a d RR had: 1 Waggonmaster, 1 cart, 4 horses; and each company: 2 carts with 4 horses.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON UNIFORMS AND EQUIPTMENT

In general before 1708 the coat and trousers were darkblue, the waistcoat was in the facing colour and stockings were white. (According to [18] the coat and waistcoat were mediumblau.)

A canvas bag was also carried as well as two cartridge pouches: a large one on a shoulder strap and a small one on the front of the waistbelt. At the start of the war they were described as „white“ meaning buff leather. Only in 1708 does evidence of „black“ pouches occur [24]. In 1713 in Catalonia blue coats with red facings were ordered for all Palatine regiments, „as the old uniforms are worn out“. Blue waistcoats were prescreibed for the infantry and red waistcoats for the cavalry [15, confirmed by 24].

The special mark of all Palatine soldiers were socalled ”Nesslinge” or nestlings. The nestling was a braided aiguillette in the facing colour and worn on the right shoulder [15 and 24].

Heavy cavalry wore silver- to ashgray with differently coloured facing. Cloaks and schabraques were gray lined in the facing colour. The dragoons wore red or yellow coats with ashgray or yellow facings and linings.

Drums were painted with white/blue flames and decorated with the Electoral cypher. Kettledrums were said to be blue with silver laces and decorated with the Electoral cypher. Trumpeters are said to have worn reversed colours [15]. Drummers wore the regimental uniform decorated with lace [24]. The artillery wore light gray.

Officers were differenciated as follows [1]:

OF 149

Leutnant und Fähnrich: a Spanish cane without a nob Kapitän ” ” ” with a nob of ivory Major und Oberstleutnant ” ” ” ” ” silver Oberst ” ” ” ” ” gold All officers carried spontoons eight feet in length. Staffofficers had ones with gilded blades. The tassels were white (silver)/blue. Sashes were white/blue.

Non-Commissioned Officers

Corporals and Sergeant-majors carried a hazelnut stick and a 6 ½ foot long halberd but sometimes only shortened old pikes. NCOs also had a golden border around the cuffs and, according to [15], often red coats although this cannot be confirmed through the archives. What the archives do say, is that the coats of the NCOs were made of „Lacken“, a fine material treated with lack or similar to make it more waterproof. The same material was used for schabraques, horemen‘s cloaks and cuffs.

The surgeon/barber wore a brass barber’s bowl as a sign of rank. [6].

NCOs, pionierse, Fourierse und barbers wore only the small pouch on the front of the waistbelt. [6].

Grenadiers:

Grenadier caps were, according to Bezzel [15] made of metal with yellow, white or redcloth, the bag black or coloured. The front had the Electoral cypher „JWC“ with an Electoral crown above it. Below it flaming grenades and all surrounded with ornamental leaves. From 1703 on, the caps of the grenadiers in Dutch service were of cloth with the Electoral cypher on the front. From 1707 on, the pioneers had „long, hanging, big caps“ In 1707 grenadier caps in fur are first mentioned. After 1708 the grenadiers hat generally bearskins [1]. The flap of the grenade pouch hat 4 grenades in the corners and a brass shield in the middle.

Grenadier-officers and NCOs carried flintlocks with the bayonet always planted [1].

In 1702 the pikes were finally abolished [15, p. 423] but IR Bentheim hat 160 pikemen until 1704 who were then converted to grenadiers.

Pioneers wore similar caps to the grenadiers with leatherflaps (over the neck?) with bags in the facing colour, leather aprons and axes[6, confirmed through 24]

Tents and equiptment

Tents for 4-5 men each. Field canteens, kettles and axes [1]. Per company there were 15 other ranks tents, 1 nco tent

Tents for 4-5 men each. Field canteens, kettles and axes [1]. Per company there were 15 other ranks tents, 1 for NCOs and 12 watch tents for 16 companies. Each company had 16 tents for muskets, waxed and coloured with the arms of the colonel [15, confirmed by 24].

[24 – Rep 4032 Pag 174] Amsterdam, 01.06.1708 : Daniel Suter to the Elector about the agreed ”tin bottles”: ”I will also dutifully order the water canteens and humbly transfer the amount.”

Every man had a spanish rider (short pike) 1.7 M long, in addition there were 12 beams per battalion 2.84 M long for 9 spanish riders each [1]. For IR Haxthausen the delivery of spanish riders is confirmed for 1704 [15 and 24].

Pro battaillon there were two flags [15]. Pro squadron 1 stand of standards.

Basically one can say that the infantry before 1708 wore colourful uniforms in the northern european style. After that the uniform was simplyfied and the grenadier caps were exchanged for bearskins, perhaps because the army was fighting in Spain and followed the local style. Only the nestlings remained as the typical mark of the Palatine soldiers.

Flags:

[3] blue, thereon the arms of Neuburg. The “Triomphes de Louis XIV” are the only known source for Palatine flages of this epoch. The flag shown belongs to those which, according to the “Triomphes”, were captured on 15th Nov. 1703 at Speyer. Jean Belaubre [Plate No. 56] attributes it to the Leiibregiment:

1. The splendid design with the full Electoral Arms surrounded with the Order of the Golden Fleese indicates a regiment with the Elector as colonel.

2. The regiment was almost completely taken prisoner together with the Garde Grenadier regiment in the panic of Speyer.

3. The regiment was raised in the Palatine, not in Cleves/Jülich or Berg.

4. It wore a completely blue uniform.

The Arms of the Palatine

Heartshield: Herzogtum Pfalz: a golden lion with a red crown on a black field. 1. Herzogtum Bayern: Blue/white lozenges. 2. Herzogtum Jülich: A black lion in a gold field 3. Herzogtum Kleve: In red a little silver shield from which 8 golden lily staffs issue (the “Glevenrad”). 4. Herzogtum Berg: In silver a red double-tailed lion armed gold and with a blue crown. 5.

Flags:

According to the “Triomphes” [3] plate 148: flag blue/white/blue vertically, standing golden lion with 2 spears in golden palmwreath on olive ground, motto: “NON DORMIT (CUSTOS)”.

The blue/white colour and the lion indicate a Palatine flag. The motto, “Non Dormit (Custos)” belongs to the House of Sachsen-Gotha from which the line of Sachsen-Meiningen stams. The right flag carries the motto, “Mature et Caute”, a slogan of the Saxen Ernestines, especially in the form, “Candide et Caute”. Is this perhaps the colonel’s flag from which the centre field has been torn off? The arms of the owner?

The regiment Sachsen-Meiningen fought at Speyer in the front line next to Nassau-Weilburg, Isselbach, Leibregiment, Rehbinder, Lybeck and Barbo and was destroyed like the others in the French attack.

Flags:

[3 - Plate 56:] Flags red, Arms of the Elector. Colonel’s flag white. 10 company and a colonel‘s colour were lost to the French at Speyer in 1703. The arms give the clue for a guard regiment and the red colour corresponds to the facing colour of the der Garde Grenadiere.

See the notes under the Leibregiment for an explanation of the fields inthe arms. The red heart shield with the golden crown of Charlemagne is the symbol of the Imperial office of Arch Treasurer which was awarded to Kurpfalz in 1648. (But was given to Hanover with the Electoral dignity in 1692.) After the Bavarian Elector Max Emanuel was oulawed the office of Hereditary Grand Steward fell back to Kurpfalz. (Kurpfalz had lost this office in 1623 at the start of the Thirty Years War.) Thus Kurpfalz got the golden Orb on a red field as the sign of the Electoral office. However, at the peace of 1714 Kurpfalz lost this again. After 1714 Kurpfalz often carried an empty middle shield as a protesst. Since the flags were probably made on the founding of the regiment in 1698 before the outlawing of the Bavarian Elector, the shield carries the symbol of the Imperial Treasurer.

OF 149

The arms are surrounded with the Order of the Golden Fleece. The colonel’s flag carries only this emblem.

The slogan of the Roman emperor Constantine, “In hoc signo vinces” (“In this sign you will conquer”.) together with the cross of the Teutonic Order indicates the connection to that order.

Flags: [3 – Plate 163] The “Triomphes de Louis XIV” assign this flag to the booty of Castiglione. The flag shows the arms of Bavaria but since Bavaria was allied with France, it cannot be a Bavarian but only a Palatine flag and therefore belonged to the Brigade of General Rehbinder, to the regiments: Rehbinder, Barbo or Bentheim. We have assigned it to the regiment Barbo.

Flags:

[3] The “Triomphes de Louis XIV” assign this flag to the booty of Speyer. The black (Jülich) lion and the blue/white zigzag border identify Kurpfalz as the origin. The unheraldic black lion on blue is peculiar – the arms of Jülich show a black lion on a golden field. Because of the losses suffered there, we assign this flag to the regiment Greber.

Flags:

[3] The “Triomphes de Louis XIV” assigns this flag to the booty of Speyer.

The flag is definitely Palatine but the assignment to Rehbinder is uncertain.

The fields in the arms are: Heartshield: Palatine, upper row f.l.t.r.: Bavaria, Jülich, Cleves, Berg. Lower row, f.l.t.r.: Veldenz, Mark, Ravensberg, Mörs. The whole is surrounded with the Order of the Golden Fleece. The absense of a ducal or electoral cap is odd.

Standards [3 – Plate 55] The “Triomphes de Louis XIV” assign these standards to the booty of Speyer. The motto “In hoc signo vinces” is typical of the flags and standards of Kurpfalz. Because of the lossies which regiment Venningen suffered we suspect that this regiment was the owner of both examples.

Obristleutnant company red, thereupon the motto “DOMINUS VERTVTVM NOBISCVM” in pink. Reverse: silver cross in golden halo of rays, beneath it “IN HOC SIGNO VINC(ES)”.

Colonel’s company white, border pink-yellow chequered. Obverse: a cross with a motto on a band around it containing “IN HOC SIGNO VINCES”. Reverse: cypher “JWC” in a palm wreath with the Electoral cap above it.

Standards [3 – Plate 163] The “Triomphes de Louis XIV” assign these standards to the booty of Castiglione. The golden lion on a blue field hints at a Palatine standard. Also the allegory, a wounded lion defending itself against a dog („Melac“?) fits this theory, therefore we assume it belongs to the losses at Turin. Three Palatine cavalry regiments took part in the battle of Turin: Nassau-Weilburg (Leibregiment – q.v.), Wieser and Schellardt. We preferred Wieser.
