This helmet was made in Germany, around the middle of the 16th century. It was once mistaken for a relic of King Magnus Laduras of Sweden, who died in 1290. The helmet, together with a set of armor consisting of unrelated parts, was on display in the Church of Rida Hall, Sweden, until 1866. The church is the mausoleum of the Swedish royal family and one of the oldest churches in Sweden. It is a Basarnett-style helmet, the distinctive feature is that there is a sharp mouth protruding forward in front of the mask, the main function is to deflect frontal attacks. It was more popular in Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries and was often used to equip heavily armored pistol cavalry.
