BE – 🛡️ Spangenhelm – Early Medieval Warrior Helmet with Scale Aventail

Description

The Spangenhelm is one of the most iconic and historically significant helmets from Late Antiquity to the early Middle Ages, favored by a wide range of warriors across Europe, including Vikings, Franks, and Crusaders.

Its unique segmented design—constructed from metal plates riveted together—made it easier to produce while maintaining excellent protection. A raised central ridge provided additional strength against direct blows, while later models incorporated chainmail or scale aventails to protect the neck.

This versatile helmet not only served as essential battle gear for medieval soldiers but also became the foundation for many later medieval helmet designs. Whether you’re a historical reenactor, collector, or medieval enthusiast, the Spangenhelm is a striking and authentic addition to your gear or display.
