The Regiment was raised during 1703 in Italy, as part of the Danish corps fighting in foreign service.

On its return to Denmark it continued directly into the Great Northern War against Sweden.

The regimental flag had the battle honour Gadebusch 1712, Fredericia 1848 and Dybbøl 1864.

It has been garrisoned in Holstein, Sønderjylland and Nørrejylland, and for a short while in Copenhagen.

In 1961, the newly raised 2nd Jutlandic Brigade took over the Coat of Arms from 10th regiment (Feltherrens Fodregiment)
