Wittenberg - Review of Household Troops

To celebrate the 15th anniversary of the treaty of Witzend (signed in 1740) which ended the 3rd Belgravian War; the Household Troops pass in review before the King and the court.

Firstly the Chevalier Guard and the Horse Grenadiers of the Guard, led by the combined mounted bands of the guard cavalry.

These were followed by the Grenadier Guards and the Wittenland Fusilers (the Queen's regiment), led by the combined bands of the foot guards.

I agree. Wonderful buildings in the town too.

Excellent review!

The freshly 'spruced up' homes of the town helped to make for such an excellent display.
