The Castle of the Counts is transformed into a medieval time machine. Knights, noblewomen, stilt walkers and dancers reclaim the castle for a day.
Come along and learn archery or participate in folkloric games. You can have your make-up done or dress up like a real knight or princess and take home a photo as a souvenir. Exciting (knight) stories will be told to the little ones.
There will also be medieval music and dance, a bar with beer made according to medieval recipes and sword fights in the bailey.
This activity takes place on a location within the low emission zone
