Playfully into the past - European Archeology Days in the State Museum

At Whitsun (Pfingsten), the open-air museum is transformed into a place of living history. For three days, members of the Düppel Museum Village Association and travelling craftsmen will bring the Middle Ages into the present day in authentic costumes.

Let's spend a day with the inhabitants of the village from the early Middle Ages and recall with them the customs associated with the ancient celebrations of the holidays called Pentecost. Together we will clean and decorate the building, knit wreaths, grind flour and bake pancakes on the fire. We lie in the field

We cordially invite visitors to Archeon who want to revive and experience the Middle Ages to join this procession.

Textiles were already being dyed several thousand years ago. In this practical course, participants will learn which plants are suitable for dyeing, which shades they produce and how wool can be dyed with them.

We’re delighted to be joined by a new re-enactment group - Swords of Penda - Children of Loki – who will be bringing our Anglo Saxon buildings to life.
