Made by Denix, we present our ornamental replicas of famous and antique cannons. Construction is generally of high-grade metals and woods.
A cannon is any large tubular weapon designed to fire a heavy projectile over a long distance. They were first used in China and Europe , and were the first form of artillery.
The first cannon in Europe probably appeared in Moorish and Christian Spain. English cannon were first used during the Hundred Years War, when primitive cannon were used at the Battle of Crécy in 1346. The end of the Middle Ages saw the construction of larger and more powerful cannon, and their spread in warfare throughout the world.
More manuverable pieces in larger numbers became favored using higher numbers of cannon. While the medieval Dardanelles Gun had required 200 men to operate it, 18th century English cannon required only a dozen men, including two gunners, while during the Napoleonic Wars five gunners were used.
