Mazovia Mediaevalis - everyday life in medieval Czersk 14th century

"Mazovia Mediaevalis" - or curiosities of everyday life in Czersk in the second half of the 14th century.

What did the world look like from the perspective of knights and commoners?
Was every armed man a knight?
How did the crew of Cherven Castle live in and out of duty?

Crafts, cuisine, medieval games and, of course, armour and period costumes - all of this will be available to see up close during a meeting with re-enactors from the Hufiec Kasztelanii Czerska group.

During the event there will be re-enactor stands in the castle courtyard, where you can learn about the rich history of the region in the Middle Ages. Re-enactors will explain what the world looked like from the perspective of knights and commoners. They will tell if every armed man was a knight.

In addition, you will find out how the crew of Czersk castle lived during their service and beyond. There will be a medical stand, a kitchen, medieval games and, of course, militaria and period costumes at our re-enactors' stands. The most adventurous will be able to learn archery and the basics of fencing or take part in a demonstration of blacksmithing or see a fencing duel between foot soldiers.
