Various units of Swiss Guards existed for hundreds of years. The earliest such unit was the Swiss Hundred Guard
(Cent-Garde) at the French court (1497 - 1830). This small force was complemented in 1567 by a
Swiss Guards regiment. The Papal Swiss Guard in the Vatican was founded in 1506 and is the only Swiss Guard that
still exists. In the 18th century several other Swiss Guards existed for periods in various European courts.
