- The Winged Hussars have arrived!
By the 17th century it seemed like the golden age of the Winged Hussars had come to an end. Heavily armored, clad in steel and leopard skins, they had once charged over the battlefields with their wings proudly flying in the wind. But as the city of Vienna came under siege by the Ottoman Empire, the Polish Winged Hussars once more set out to meet their foes on the battlefield. Prepare for a thunderous charge that would go down in history.

I was about to write a comment... but then the Winged Hussars arrived! This is our anniversary episode! It's been now 1 year and 53 Sabaton History episodes later since we started this channel! We'd like to thank all of you for joining us on this journey! Massive thanks to all of you supporting us on Patreon - we literally could not have done this without your help!

Cheers to many more episodes! Your Sabaton-History Team!
Thank YOU guys for the brilliant idea of this channel and for the work you put in each and every episode, they're top-quality without exception. I'd praise you more, but it seems the Winged Hussars arrived. 😛
Hope you do The Last Battle soon
Thank you for what you are doing here! More sabaton, more history. And, I think, you should do crossover with extra history.
If you make that joke one more time im gonna charge you loke THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVRED
Hello,
Great video, but there is/was (because the last video was posted over 2 years ago) a channel with the guy - Jędrek castellan of Choinik castle (unfortunately the channel does not allow translation so the videos so there are only in polish) and there is a series of videos about 'hussars' (link to his channel: th-cam.com/users/surgepoloniafeatured). In one of the series (over 40 minutes long just about hussars) he says that wings had been worn in parades (later), occasionally in battle (but smaller) and mostly 'one wing'.
Another thing is that the most important weapon of the Hussar was not only the lance (which had over 40x250 cm banner and that banner made the impression of 'wings noise' and of 'flying hussars') but the polish hussar saber and other weapons (a lot of them) in general regiment of hussars was kind of 16th-century super-heavy tank.
And in other of his videos, he says: 'Yeah, the Battle Vienna was a big one, but Battle of Khotyn (1621) was a better one - with the biggest gathering of polish hussars'
What do you think about it?
Cheers.
[EDIT] Also I have rewatched videos about hussars (link above) and Jędrek claims that 'real' victory of the Turks happened during the Battle of Párkány.

I'm a former tanker in the Ohio army national guard and my family background is part Polish. When i researched the history behind the song years ago, i felt so much pride. Maybe in being a tanker, the modern calvary, i was carrying on the tradition of my brave polish ancestors. I may be an american by birth, but my heart, my blood is of the winged hussars.
Actually contemporary polish armored units use hussars as their symbols. Hussars wings are used as badges of polish 11th Armoured Cavalry Division and 4th Armored Cavalry Brigade.
@@Cl0n3pl Yep, I did see that. In fact, you can get those very same emblems for your Polish tanks in WoT. They're on mine!
American cavalry take as one's model polish cavalry- Pulaski's Legion (1778-80)
And you are not the only one who feels this way
You’d be more impressed with the Polish uprising soldiers (Kotwica), they were supremely outnumbered but fought like hell, had slogans such as “one bullet, one German” posted around the city because ammunition was scarce. But yes as a Pole myself I’m very proud of our history, from having the strongest Calvary of all time to having been invaded from both sides (Germany/Russia) and still holding our city until all hope was lost. It was almost like the battle of 300 with Kotwica, they knew they would die, completely outnumbered but fought anyway.

Several batlles in the Napolionic wars had bigger charges. Even in ancient times the Persian empire made there bigger ones. 18 000 is not that much. The difference is the quality.

When I was younger one of my uncle’s made several set of the hussar wings for a friend’s performance troupe that performed at various state Renfairs. I remember helping my uncle test them to make sure the feathers held during a fast ride against the wind.
It struck me the sound they made when you where being subject to their charge. This eerie whipping howl. I’ve always imagined that sound, amplified by a thousand or more hussars, combined with the ground shaking thunder of a massed charge would be disastrous to morale. Since lancers are a one shot for effect, you’d want to stack every advantage you could. Whether or not they did, I can’t say. Still, I would think someone would have noticed that sound and realized the effect it bring to a charge.
Eighteen thousand lancers would make a lot of noise.
And that combined with the clanking of metal plates and probably a bloodcurdling battlycry, would make anyone shit themselves.
I never thought of that, but now you mention it, it makes sense. Thanks for sharing that.

You should also watch 40:1 from Sabaton then ;)
Its just Poland? You must have really been in the dark about the incredible military history of that Nation.
@@xcritic9671 When I was in school we learned very little about Eastern Europe. The sum total of teaching regarding Poland was "the Germans invaded them."
Then Sabaton came along with 40:1 and THE WINGED HUSSARS and completely blew my mind. Poland deserves far more praise and respect than it gets!

Uprising
What I like about this moment in history is the inspiration it gave JRR Tolkien to describe the charge of the Rohirrim smashing apart the armies of Mordor on the open field.
That's cool, I didn't know that about LotR! Thanks for the trivia!
Not to mention the siege of helms deep = siege of Vienna
I literally came to comment "is this what inspired the end of the battle of helms deep"
And the Haradrim are basically the Carthage Army under Hannibal.
Quick story I actually have related to this event, last summer I’m taking a tour through the Vatican inside St. Peter’s basilica. As I’m walking through seeing all the artwork around me I end up in this room where this painting 10:40 gigantically stood in front of me. I am in aw and shock to see it here, I ask the tour guide if this is depicting the siege of Vienna, she said yes, and asked if I was Polish. Was such an inspiring sight to see
Do you remember where the painting was? I've been in St. Peter's but I don't remember a giant painting.
the sacred potato yeah pretty much
im not even gonna lie, that should be returned to Poland
@@wik7or214 yes it should, it was given to the pope by Austrians in 1883 (basically they stole it and gave it to the pope). Originally it was hanged in the throne room in the Warsaw Castle.
Visited the museum in Vatican City. There was this *huge* painting depicting the king and his hussars. It was truly epic!
They didn't ask for a number of the enemies. They were asking for their location

@@babaeren62 i do, you clearly don't. The surface meaning and the underlying meaning of what is said/written should not be the same. In this bad joke there is no underlying meaning.
@@orson1821 Everything has a counterpart!
I love how the cavalry charge in LOTR is inspired of the winged hussars
the entire siege of Helms Deep was.
@ The Uruks rushed to sap the only section of wall without a tower, the rhohirrim came down a mountainside in a charge, and the king/mayor barely didn't make it to the end of the battle, from what I remember.
Dude I freaked when I was watching this and realized that lol..complete with the orcs using explosives against the walls of helms deep, just like the ottomans in Vienna. Tolkien was a genius
Both helms deep and minas tirith is based of Vienna
The crazy thing is that the real-life charge of the Winged Hussars was THREE TIMES bigger than the on-screen representation of the Charge of the Rohirim. Theoden mustered 6,000 cavalry at Pelinor Fields.
When Winged Hussaria charged German and Austrian Army units stopped fighting to watch the charge.
They arrive neither late nor early, the hussars arrive precisely when they mean to.
SanitaryCockroach
So they intentionally let the Austrians and Germans fight alone against the Ottomans for more than half a day without helping them?
That seems kinda mean lol.
@@HingerlAlois Well, they *are* Austrians and Germans. Poland doesn't have the best history with them :P
SanitaryCockroach
Austria had been allied with Poland in the Second Northern War (1655-1660) when it signed an alliance with Poland in 1656.
The Austrian troops helped Poland to win this war.
Basically most of the problems between Poland and Austria(/Germans) came after 1683.
Thus Austria and Poland rather used to be allies.
Poland had a rivalry with Brandenburg-Prussia, but probably because Poland allied with Austria the elector of Brandenburg anyway decided not to send troops to Vienna in 1683.
The German troops that fought at Vienna came from Bavaria (led by Elector Maximilian II. Emanuel of Bavaria) with about 10.500 troops, Saxony (led by Elector John George III. of Saxony) with 9.000 troops and from various smaller German countries that provided an additional 9.500 soldiers.
I don’t think that there was a rivalry between Bavaria or the other German countries and Poland.
@@HingerlAlois I have been educated.
@@sanitarycockroach9038 A real r/woosh over here man.
"and then the winged hussars arrived", a perfect response to everything besides "but what about dragons?"
Is that a Shadiversity reference?
MACHICOLATIONS!
I mean, properly trained cavalry lancers would probably be a credible threat if the dragon was grounded. They just have to avoid detection. Like bear-baiting.
@@morganrobinson8042 You are missing the point. Tactics employed wouldn't really make a difference when the odds are this extreme. The David vs Goliath thing doesn't really apply here. Not with those numbers - It would take at the very least 60-70 dragons to defeat a winged hussar smh my head.
As a Warhammer Fantasy Battles fan, I can attest that Kislevite Winged Lancers (Winged Hussars in all but name) are absolutely the perfect response to "what about dragons"?
At last, Winged Hussars, Polish Pride... The best band, the best yt channel, the best song, all in one. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 ✌🏻
As a kid, I was privileged to know a Polish Cavalry Officer. Always impeccably dressed, his horse was a local personality in his own right. Always the perfect gentleman. He passed away in 1992.
A great loss.
I'm from the Philippines and everytime I read or watch about the Winged Hussars my hair stands up and I feel so emboldened I think I can fight 10 black belts at the same time 💪💪💪 very powerful! Ave Maria!
Loved this video!! However, I have to point out one small detail: at Vienna only 3,000 Winged Hussars were there. The rest of the cavalry force was the standard cavalry of the time: pistoliers and pseudo-knights of the Holy League. The thing that made the Winged Hussars so famed was the fact that they were the vanguard of the cavalry force attacking the Ottoman redoubt. They were the first ones into the fray and the impact of their first charge was indeed the decisive point of the battle. The Ottoman lines had been failing and starting to give for a few hours before the cavalry charge, but the impetus of the largest cavalry charge in history broke any remaining military order in the Ottoman army. The winged hussars were the tip of the spear, but they were not alone. Other than that detail, great job! :D
I think, we didn't need more than 3000 Winged Hussars there... you can look these battle's:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Klushino
(after these battle, rest of Polish units 2 years occupated Moscow)
Here is best Polish battle with Winged Hussars (Polish "Thermopylae"):

Sorry for my English:P
Greetings from Poland~ :-)
Karol Woro
You definitely needed more than 3.000 soldiers...
Hell the Polish cavalry was defeated by the Ottomans hardly one month after the Battle of Vienna.
At the Battle of Párkány Sobieski wanted to attack the Ottomans with 5.000 Polish cavalry soldiers, but his vanguard was routed by the Ottomans and the entire Polish cavalry force had to retreat suffering 1.000 casualties in the process.
The Polish troops were saved when they reached the Austrian and German troops that had been a few kilometers away and when the retreating Polish troops reached them the Austrian and German cavalry counterattacked the Ottoman cavalry.
Two days later the combined Austrian, German and Polish forces defeated the Ottomans during the second stage of the Battle of Párkány.
@@HingerlAlois It was not a typical battle, but a trap by "surprise" Winged Hussars without charge and formation it's worth as normal cavalry :-) They almost killed Sobieski :o Respect for Ottomans!
Karol Woro
The winged hussars were great cavalry, but of course not superhuman like they are seemingly often portrayed.
In the Battle of Warsaw in 1656 the allied forces of Sweden (9.500 soldiers) and Brandenburg (8.500 soldiers) defeated a significantly larger Polish force of circa 40.000 soldiers which included around 950 winged hussars.
@@HingerlAlois Man, I know it :) Hussars was a best in charging battle style, if they don't have "empty field" at the batte, there was worth as normal cavalry :) The secret of Winged Hussars be in formation, many countries trying "copy" a Polish hussars - without success. That was a Polish old traditions from a father to son. One more thing.. Pike - maximal 7 meters, the longest pike's used by a cavalery at these time (inside empty and light). This is reason, why Hussars must charging sometimes 5-10 times at the battle (change a broken pike's:P)
Greetings.
I was placidly sleeping in my room... THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
In France is afternoon 16 : 21
That is how I wake up every morning because it is my alarm on my phone.
Hell yea! I'm not Polish, but between 40:1 and the Winged Hussars... I feel some honorary Polish pride, and of course love Sabaton! Another great story Indy!
This story is just so epic.
Imagine you are a Viennese citizen during this siege. You are starving and every day you get weaker and weaker. Then, on the day you think all is lost, you hear faint galloping. It gets louder and louder, then eventually you hear a battle cry in some foreign language. The Winged Hussars have arrived!
Fun fact that just became public, with Poland getting the American F35 Poland has designated them Hussars. Literally “The Winged Hussars” arrived. I’m picturing a programmer in ether Polish military or skunk works writing a program that blares winged Hussars into enemy aircraft communications making it impossible for them to coordinate and communicate lol

@@W0DAN88 not a bit
I just came here for the “WHEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED” memes.
And the history :)
I just came for the memes and I'm not disappointed
King Jan III Sobieski lost in Vienna after over 300 years. His monument was to be unveiled in Vienna last year. The city authorities withdrew from this idea. It was considered that it would offend the Muslim inhabitants of Vienna. This is a meme of history. However, the Turks conquered Vienna, and the Winged Hussars didn't arrive.
As a Polish person i want just say a big THANK YOU!

One of my favorite songs. But I am also eagerly waiting for The Ballad of Bull.
The thing is, other than some historical context, pretty much all the information available is already in the song. At least as far as I could tell.
We'll get there
It's hard to imagine the effect of 18,000 horses in full charge.
Imagine an earthquake. that’s probably as close as you’re going to get.
It’s the last thing thousands of Muslims saw. Glorious!
All of the dislikes were from Ottomans
nope, as a race with a warrior culture, we turks loved the worthy opponents that can beat us. after all, we were coming from somewhere where we were the underdogs (central asia). the real dislikes we give goes to things like arab-armenian revolts.
Well, empalement is quite unpleasant expirience and probably leaves a lot of trauma.
@@emircanayyldz7814 well... As Polish and historian I can say that the respect that I pay to whole Turkish history and history is as big as hussars wings.

@@emircanayyldz7814 JAGIELLONS!! I love this part of polish history, especially queen (actually king but that's complicated) Jadwiga Andegaweńska
I have a book on the History of Cavalry, which says that the purpose of the "wings" was tactical. The Cossack and Tartar cavalry were mostly agile light cavalry, who used a lasso as a weapon to unhorse their opponents. The purpose of the "wings" was to prevent the lasso from catching you. The wings were meant to grab the lasso. The wing gets taken off, but the rider is unharmed. Sort of a breakaway anti-lasso defense.
As good a reason as any, really.
As a Pole I can confirm, wings they also made a sound that drowns out other sounds frightening the horses of the hussar

th-cam.com/video/vWTX2NX8_MA/w-d-xo.html best lyric video for winged hussars
But do Hussars defeat Jannisaries?
@@martijn9568 with few thousand yeah, just keep stables working and kill as much villagers as possible
9:27
Arise, arise, Riders of Sobieski!
Spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered,
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Wienna!
Wienna haahhaha
@@harnaswariot he used half polish, half english name for Wiedeń/Vienna. In Poland W is V. When you use name Warsaw it's completely different sound than "W" in Polish name of the city: Warszawa. It would be Łarsaw in Polish letters. ^^
@@werthor7083 what r u drinking or taking?
I lost hope that Rome would hold against armies of the Holy Roman Empire...
BUT THEN THE WINGED HUSS--
Oh wait...
John Eric Berlin 1527? Wasn’t that a bunch of rampaging mercenaries rather than the order of Charles V? Considering he of all people was probably one of the more catholic Holy Roman Emperors
@@thethirdsicily4802 there were hussars at that time so you are not wrong entirerly.
@@aronnemcsik true
INDY NEIDELL I DID NOT KNOW THAT YOU DID SABATON HISTORY (I've seen The Great War channel stuff and had heard about this channel but had never watched anything here until now) You are awesome. Thank you.
This has become my favorite TH-cam channel. I feel like a little kid on Christmas eve when Monday night rolls around.
Keep being awesome, guys! :-)
Thank you! :) We will!
The spiritual power of Our Lady of Poland and Lithuania gives wisdom to crush the enemy, always...
Great presentation, thanks for the great tunes.
Lithuanians didnt take part in the battle.
@@kml8732you coward lost your mind? Lithuanian - Polish army was united in every battle especially the winged hussars
@@treal1006 Lithuanians didnt take part in Vienna battle. Learn history, mate.
@@kml8732 The Grand Duchy of Lithuania, along with the Kingdom of Poland, jointly formed the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The Winged Hussars were a notable cavalry unit within the Commonwealth, and members from both the Polish and Lithuanian territories served as part of this elite military formation during the 16th and 17th centuries. Its Polish and Lithuanian Hussars.
@@treal1006 What is this idiotic source. Lithuanian force never got to Vienna before the battle. This was nothing new for Lithuanian army to show up on the battlefield two weeks after the battle was ended.Give me the source of this news.
The song about about great warriors! Respect from Minsk, Belarus.
This became a meme for the Vol. in Syria. We had one guy, from Poland, who did feats of man. Impossible things. This song pretty much became his song.
can you give more details please - in private if you want?
I was watching this out in Montana, with not good internet connection..
Than the WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!!!
How ironic is that I decided to watch this video right on 12th of september, the exact date that the Winged Hussars arrived in Vienna! Huge props and love
Heavy cavalry charges in the movies are easily among the best scenes that can appear on screen
When done with relative historical accuracy.
When I'm out of college and making money I will become a patreon, but until then THANK YOU so much for these videos and not making me search for the history and the men you sing about. I regret that you guys have any source material at all, but I think you honor the material in sincere and great way, happy birthday Sabaton History!
Thanks and thank you for the support!
This song is how I discovered Sabaton. It was mentioned on a podcast I listened to and I HAD to go look it up.
The very first Sabaton song I heard. As soon as I heard it, I had to hear more by them. Ended up buying most of their CDs. Last October, I took my sons to see them in Chicago. Needless to say, we’re big fans!
Do you remember? In September? I do.
WPSent the night Vienna was freed? Yes.
“We made the enemy bleed!” Of course I do.
That's when THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
Pepperidge Farms remembers.
18000 was the total number of horsemen but only around 3000 Winged Hussars. So that is even more impressive to have such a strong impact in the battlefield with a comparably small number of them.
When the winged hussars arrived, Sabaton new they’d need a bigger boat
BISMARK IN MOTION
The Middle-Earth version: “The Rohirim Arrives”
Winged Hussars: *arrive*
Me: "I've been looking forward to this"
Best regards from Serbia to our brothers and sisters in Poland. Glad we share this part of history!
1683: THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
1772: Broken dreams so grand...
But "Poland is not dead yet".
1921: The day of vengeance cometh
The day of wrath draws nigh!!!
The spirit that was broken *DID NOT DIE!!*
A life for every taken life
A tongue for every lie
ONE EYE FOR EVERY TEAR WE EVER CRIED!!!!
Guess what?? A Winged Hussar has arrived! I'm a descendant of a Winged Hussar! Keep the history coming and a Winged Hussar loves Sabaton!!
Thanks! Good to know you're enjoying our content. Respect to your ancestor.
Спасибо компании перевода за исторически правильный перевод, в частности за "Речь Посполитую" ! Минск, Беларусь.
Interestingly enough, nowadays one doesn't think of Hussars as having wings. When you see Hussars uniforms around the world they're mostly drawn from Hungarian Hussars (without the metal plates and no wings). When I listened to this song the first time (in a fanmade video in TH-cam) I was in awe "They have WINGS!". I commented it to an old friend in Poland and he was very surprised "Of course they have wings. They all have, right?". I had to show him pictures for him to understand. In turn, he showed me pictures of Polish Hussars with different versions of uniform and wings. It was a very interesting exchange, and sparked in me the interest for making drawings about these soldiers and listen more of Sabaton.
This is honestly one of my favorite historical stories. The song makes it even better. Im going to a Sabaton concert on Sunday and I really hope they’ll play it.
you skipped church also ?xD
henswi89 skipped Church?? I would...never do such a thing...obviously...uhm...
Yeah I totally did though lol
That was a glorious day... when the Winged Hussars arrived.
7:39 I got serious goosebumps there after...
My first introduction to Sabaton was a Total War meme with this song in the background. I was hooked instantly.
To think there was a time before I discovered my favorite band, AND THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED
YES I MENTIONED THIS TO BE A HISTORY ON THE ONE OF THEIR LASTEST VIDEOS. THANK YOU SABATON AND INDY!
WE REMEMBER IN SEPTEMBER!
This is a fantastic way to show the history behind your songs!
The bit where you told of the mass and hymn before battle.......chills.....
Les Hussards Ailés était la meilleure Cavalerie de tous les temps ! merci a Sabaton 👌
A wise man once said, "Sabaton is the History Channel, but as Power Metal"
The satisfaction when the winged hussars episode finally arrive
One year. Oh man what a year for this channel, I've learned so much because of Indy and Sabaton. Continue being awesome, and I shall happily follow and watch.
Thank you, we will :)
This is the most iconic sabaton song
This is both mine and my daughter's favorite song, and we began watching the Sabaton History Channel religiously from day 1. This could not have been a more perfect episode for us for one year! Thank you Indie and thank you Sabaton. THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
You're welcome! Thanks for the support from both you and your daughter!
You guys have been around for a year now. Checked the date. I have good memories of this song when it came out. And it is time that we learned a lot more about this meme song and the awesomeness of hearing it live is always one party. Didn't hear it in Antwerp last Sunday.
Also, was this on Graspop live? Just asking.
I just love the fact that this song has become it's own meme
Only Total war fans know that nothing is more beautiful than a quick heavy cavalry charge.
Me: Wears Armor, kicks door down.
*THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!*
Predatory pegasi... sadly my brain thought my little ponys ( rainbow dash covered in blood ) the bad thing about being a mom of a girl that love my little ponys
That uh . . . I would pay to see that happen lol
You need therapy
@@DC-ru5xz No, I mean I would pay to see a bunch of cartoon ponies just murder each other in a bloody fashion.
Well... I mean... Hoi4 does have an Equestria at War mod... so... more possible then you may think.
@@maximaldinotrap Not exactly ponies but...Happy Three Friends is quite close.
Fun fact the battle of Pelennor fields in lord of the rings 3 was based on the battle of Vienna. Where polish hussars were Rohan’s horseman.
