Hello again,
I have done some further research and found this interesting article about medival Banners from Strassburg (only in german, sorry):

http://drapeaualsace.free.fr/staedtischen_kriegsfahnen.htm

If someone interested:
it tells that the banners I mentioned in my first post are Strassburg (White with diagonal red bar), the banner of the duke of Lorraine (showing Mary and the angel of annunciation, here is a better image from the Schilling chronic: http://www.e-codices.unifr.ch/de/bbb/Mss-hh-I0003/769/0/Sequence-49) and the banner of the Niedere Vereinigung (red with white bar).

Banners for Murten (Morat) 1476

Hello,
I´m doing some research at the Moment, looking for some informations about banners at the battle of Murten 1476.
And to make it not too easy I´m looking for banners of the small coningent of swiss/lorraine/german horse which took part in that battle on the swiss side.
I already found this: https://de.wikisource.org/wiki/Burgunderkriege#/media/File:Schilling_murten_bern.jpg
There is a groupe of horsemen in the upper middle of the picture, showing three banners: Strassburg (?), one with an angle and an austrian one.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Christoph
