The Old Guard, the most senior regiment of Napoleon’s Imperial Guard, was known for its unwavering discipline, battlefield experience, and loyalty. These seasoned veterans were often deployed at critical moments to break enemy lines or form impenetrable defensive squares against cavalry attacks.
At Austerlitz (1805), they played a crucial role in Napoleon’s greatest victory, standing firm while the French army enveloped the Austro-Russian forces. At Borodino (1812), they led a fierce assault against the Russian positions, proving their worth in brutal combat. At Waterloo (1815), the Old Guard made their legendary last stand, forming defensive squares against overwhelming British and Prussian forces. As enemy troops closed in, the cry of "La Garde meurt mais ne se rend pas!" ("The Guard dies but does not surrender!") became a symbol of their undying spirit.
This French Imperial Guard Kneeling with Musket figurine brings this rich history to life, making it an essential piece for any toy soldier collector, history enthusiast, or diorama builder.
