ReConference is a three day international, interdisciplinary conference on the topics of re-enactment and living history. Our aim is to examine and develop the re-enactment scene - the many topics of historical re-enactment and living history - through key talks, workshops, panel discussions, «rants and praises» and small pop-up exhibitions.

Free admission, activities for the whole family and Christmas holidays in a variety of quantities!

The biggest peak of the year is approaching, which means Christmas hustle and bustle in Sagnland's 19th century Krikkebjerghouses.

In the weekend of May 13 and 14 we focus on the ships and how they were prepared for long trips at sea. We need new ropes on the boats, so the ropemaker is busy beating rope. Visit him at the rope maker alley and see how he is doing the many meters of ropes.

In the Prayer Day Holidays, we focus on the beliefs and superstitions of the Middle Ages. There is sickness on the way, a vicious fever has reached other cities and we have heard about it in Luebeck, where our merchant ships often visit. The townspeople are nervous.

Last year we celebrated our 25th anniversary and it was a success, so we repeat ot in slightly smaller scale.

There will be a large jousting, fighting for power and honor and which also explains the jousting in the Middle Ages.
