A quintain is an object mounted on a post or attached 2 a movable crossbar mounted on a post used as a target in the medieval sport called tilting.
Tilting at the quintain is a historical jousting practice where knights would charge at a stationary target, typically a wooden post or a shield, to test their skill and accuracy. The quintain would often be designed to swing or rotate, allowing for a more dynamic challenge; if struck correctly, it would spin around, sometimes delivering a mild counterstrike to the knight. This activity served as both a training exercise for combat and a demonstration of chivalric prowess. It was commonly practiced during the medieval period.
