The strength of Barbars
We cordially invite you to celebrate the Summer Solstice in the Prehistoric settlement of Krivolik, where you will be moved to the ancient times of prehistory, when Europe was inhabited by various wild tribes, whose strength was not only in the military but also in the craft. This year, we remember the 2130 years, when the Greek historian Poseidonios of Apamea recorded an event related to our territory, when the Celtic Boii clashed with the Cimbri tribes from the north and on the white parts of Central Europe was first placed Boiohaemum, later shortly Bohemia (Czech Republic). How could such a barbarian conflict look like? Not only will you see, but you will almost experience the festive scenes of this year's solstice celebrations.

You can also look forward to tours around the settlement, which on this day will come alive with prehistoric atmosphere, live music, local refreshments and live animals. Lovers of archaic techniques to welcome an excursion to the secrets of burning fire or bronze melting. Also for children will be prepared rich programme and they can await a number of experience and creative workshops. The full-day program will end with ritual dance and lighting a new fire of the sun.
