The Prussian Landwehr were militia units formed after the devastating Prussian defeats by Napoleon in the early 1800s. Officially established in 1813, the Landwehr was a key part of the Prussian military reforms aimed at creating a broad-based national army. These units were composed largely of civilian volunteers and reservists-farmers, tradesmen, and students-who were motivated by patriotism and a desire to resist French occupation.
Although less trained than regular troops, the Landwehr played a crucial role in the War of Liberation (1813-1814) and later campaigns. They symbolized a more democratic and nationalistic spirit within the Prussian army.
Uniform Description (c. 1813-1815):
The Landwehr uniforms were simple but distinctive, reflecting both limited resources and their militia status:
Tunic: Typically a dark blue Litewka (a type of simple frock coat), sometimes black or dark gray depending on supply.
Collars & Cuffs: Colored according to the province or regiment-red, yellow, white, or light blue were common.
Headgear: The iconic black oilcloth-covered shako or a felt-covered peaked cap (Kasket) often adorned with a white Landwehr cross badge.
Trousers: Gray or dark blue, often with gaiters.
Equipment: They carried basic muskets, cartridge boxes, and often had a crossbelt with a wooden or leather canteen.
Their look was rougher and more practical compared to the polished uniforms of line infantry, which actually adds a lot of character and charm to model figures.
