Battles

King Arthur and the knights fought for many things. The knights rescue fair maidens. King Arthur married the fair maiden Guinevere. They also found Holy Grails and put down giants. Slaying dragons or pest control was also involved. When the knights often met an evil knight, they would challenge that knight to a joust, according to tradition. 


During his time, it was said the King Arthur possibly fought a total of 22 battles. There were 12 battles against the invading Saxon army, and the other 10 have not been fully identified and also may not have occurred. One battle included the Battle of Mount Badon. King Arthur defeated England. Gildas As you could have guessed, the battles took place in many places. For example, King Arthurs last battle took place at a river, in a water meadow.
