Body wagon

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Entry of Charles X through the gate of la Villette into Paris on his return from his coronation, June 6, 1825

Body wagons were the rulers' wagons in the courts.

Body wagons were subject to the supervision of the body wagon master with the help of the body wagon keepers subordinate to him. They differ from the court and chamber carriages.

Occasionally, the terms from one- horse to six- horse are used for body wagons .
