Real Maestranza de CaballerĂa de Sevilla
The Real Maestranza de CaballerĂa de Sevilla (literally Royal Cavalry Armory of Seville) is a noble guild created in 1670 from the remnants of the preceding CofradĂa de San Hermenegildo (or Hermandad Caballeresca). It was created under the advocacy of the patron saint Nuestra Señora del Rosario (Our Lady of the Rosary), and its original purpose was to train nobles in the use of arms and war horsemanship in order to better serve the Spanish Crown.
