Early Middle Ages

A warm welcome to the crafts week! During this week, Vitlycke Museum's Bronze Age farm becomes a handicraft farm, an open space for all our visitors to roam around in and learn, ask questions or just feel the atmosphere. It will be cast, woven, sewn and burned.

Attention to wool and spinning lovers! We are organizing a spinners' weekend on 3 and 4 August. You are welcome these two days to discover everything about the history of spinning wool and flax, but especially to participate. Take your own spinning reel or wheel and join our spinning group to spin the best threads in a beautiful historic environment. We provide wool!
