If you like big bangs, big guns, horses, making new friends and having lots of fun, La Garde IS the re-enactment group for you! We have over 30years of experience in re-enactment so we know our formula works. La Garde is unique in UK, in that we are one of the few re-enactment artillery groups to use full size guns and be pan-European. We have fun as a group of like minded friends who enjoy each others company - why would we take up this fascinating hobby if we did not enjoy bringing History to Life? 1e Company is based in UK, 2e Company based in France and 3e Company is forming in Poland. The UK section has 4 full size field guns (12lb, 8lb, 4lb and 6inch howitzer) and a Lombard's Gyn. In the next few years, La Garde aim's to build a caisson and other items of support equipment such as a field forge, to enable the group to depict a section of guns and all support equipment. The group also has a fully trained and equipped horse team of 4 horses, provided by 'Horses Through History'. This combination of big guns and horses to pull them is unique to La Garde. We welcome all into our ranks be they as gunners (either foot or mounted), artisans or civilians . |
