This guild was the militia of the city of Mechelen. The militia or the militia guild was a local militia established in the Middle Ages, composed of citizens, to protect and defend their town or village in case of external attack by, for example, roving gangs of robbers or foreign armies, and internally to maintain order in case of riots, fire or prominent visitors. The core tasks of the militia were thus similar to those of today's law and emergency services such as the police, fire brigade and army: to guard and preserve order, tranquillity and safety of citizens. The name militia probably comes from shooting, rather than sheltering.
