In medieval times, warhorses, known as destriers, were often equipped with armor to protect them during battles and jousting tournaments. These horses played a crucial role on the battlefield, carrying heavily armored knights into combat. Horse armor, typically included a headpiece called a chamfron, as well as neck, chest, and flank protection.
Such armor was crafted from iron or steel, designed to shield the horse from swords, arrows, and other weapons. In tournaments, the armored horse became a symbol of wealth and status, with knights dressing their horses in caparisons and ornate armor for ceremonial jousts.
