A gendarme was a heavy cavalryman of noble birth, primarily serving in the French army from the Late Middle Ages to the Early Modern period. Heirs to the knights of French medieval feudal armies, French Gendarmes also enjoyed a stellar reputation and were regarded as the finest European heavy cavalry force until the decline of chivalric ideals largely due to the ever-evolving developments in gunpowder technology. They provided the Kings of France with a potent regular force of armored lancers which, when properly employed, dominated late medieval and early modern battlefields. Their symbolic demise is generally considered to be the Battle of Pavia, which inversely is seen as confirming the rise of the Spanish Tercios as the new dominant military force in Europe.

  • Un gendarme era un jinete de caballería pesada de noble cuna, que servía fundamentalmente en el ejército francés entre la Baja Edad Media y los comienzos de la Edad Moderna. Herederos de los caballeros de los ejércitos feudales medievales franceses, los gendarmes franceses también disfrutaban de una reputación estelar y eran considerados como la mejor fuerza de caballería pesada en toda Europa​ hasta que el declive de los ideales caballerescos que se debió en gran medida a los avances en constante evolución en la tecnología de la pólvora. Los gendarmes proporcionaban a los reyes de Francia una potente fuerza regular de lanceros acorazados con la cual, cuando fueron empleados adecuadamente, dominaron los campos de batalla de finales de la Edad Media y comienzos de la Edad Moderna.
