On the program
The history of the Middle-Ages will hold no more secrets for you. Chivalrous exploits, battles in armor, historical camp reconstructions, equestrian tournaments, magic shows, medieval music, traditional arts and crafts ....
The traditional market
Visitors will be able to stroll through 200 diverse crafts makers coming from the four corners of the world, who dressed for the occasion, will bring you a touch of authenticity with their rural products : a medieval feast will be served to you, with fruit wines, barley beer, cider, almond milk, etc. Cabinet sculptors, second hand clothing dealers, jewelers, gunsmiths, brass workers, enamelers, carpenters, potters and weavers will, in turn, present their own artistic creations.
