Medieval market

The medieval market offers a lively and animated immersion into the world of the Middle Ages, filled with the scents of spices, the sounds of the forge, and colorful stalls. Right at the entrance, a collection of canvas tents and banners fluttering in the wind welcomes visitors. The merchants, dressed in period costumes, present their products warmly: rustic breads still warm, aged cheeses, meats roasted over a wood fire, mead, and spiced wines. The stalls also feature a wide selection of handcrafted items: pottery, hand-forged jewelry, naturally dyed fabrics, as well as weapons and shields decorated with ancient patterns. At the heart of the market, traditional crafts are demonstrated live: the blacksmith works with glowing iron, the calligrapher creates illuminated manuscripts, while the weaver works on his loom. Musicians, jugglers, and storytellers animate the alleys, offering entertainment inspired by medieval tales. Activities complement the experience, with educational and playful events exploring the evolution of weaponry through different periods in the village's history. The troupe **Les Lames de Bizy** will present performances on Saturday, May 22, and Sunday, May 23, 2027, featuring ten actors. A **public fencing show** will be presented every afternoon, on Saturday and Sunday. The **Kalon d’Arbalète camp** will set up over the two days, with interactive booths allowing visitors to learn while having fun and discover historical facts through exchanges with participants. **Costumed strolls** are also planned for Saturday and Sunday morning in the village of Pressagny-l’Orgueilleux, contributing to enlivening the streets and enhancing the immersive atmosphere of the event. Overall, it creates a festive and immersive ambiance, blending discovery, tradition, and entertainment. The medieval market is experienced as a true sensory and historical journey, inviting attendees to travel through time for a stroll. The association strives to embody this spirit to the fullest.
