Photo above: The Medieval week´s Official webpage
For a week now..
..people in Gotland will live in a true Medieval ambiance.
And travel 600 years back in time..In a journey in time and space!
We will go back in time with the medieval markets and music, theater and lectures in Visby´s old town and surroundings. Knights will clash in tournaments...
Gotland’s special settings, Visby’s 200 medieval houses on winding lanes, splendid church ruins, and the magnificent city wall frame a spectacle without equal.
Medieval preparations are taking place all over - here in one of the old church ruins in Visby.
A mixture of sobriety and merriment, education and festivities. The week incorporate music, dance and theatre performed by many different artists and groups.
These are photos I took last year..
..when I was wearing a Medieval garb like above. Which I had borrowed. This year I´ll wear my new Medieval dress that looks like this:
And here are some dresses from last year´s tayloring efforts :
My sister to the left.
And this is a setting truly fit for a knight and all the fair maidens!
