About

La Brigade Infernale is a Napoleonic reenactment association founded in 2001.
Its purpose is to recreate the 5th Hussar Regiment which, brigaded with the 7th Hussars, was given the name Brigade Infernale (the Infernal Brigade) for its exploits in 1806.
Drill, combat and camp life are the activities of the association's military section.


La Brigade Infernale also sets out to recreate civilian life under the Empire & the French Revolution. Through specific characters and particular occupations, the aim is to paint a picture of the daily life of the French in this period.

It introduces the general public to daily life in this period through educational activities, as workshops or acted scenes: fashion, conscription, science, medicine, hygiene and many other subjects. We bring history to life.
