Elefantenbund

The Elefantenbund was formed in 1406 by 21 Tyrolean nobles to defend their privileges against Duke Frederick IV and his governor Henry of Rottenburg. Led by Ulrich of Matsch, its members wore a silver elephant on their breasts; the poet Oswald von Wolkenstein was among them.

Although formed for five years, the league ended in 1407. Most members joined the Falcon League founded by Henry of Rottenburg.
