🐲For the third time now, we are organizing our highly successful Medieval Fair in Kisdörgicse! We are waiting for you on Saturday, August 8, for a full-day program on the clearing of the deserted church and in the cool shade of the trees! Feel as if you have stepped back into the Middle Ages! 🐲Would you like to find out what it was like to fight as a medieval warrior? Would you dance to old tunes? Would you like to learn more about medieval everyday life from a real archaeologist? Would you buy goods at the medieval market? Would you watch how iron tools were made at the blacksmith's? Would you try making gingerbread with a mallet? Would you see what a medieval straw bouncy castle looks like? 🐲The Kisdörgicse Medieval Fair is prepared with interesting, entertaining, and educational programs for both children and adults again this year!
