A wedding in the courtyard

What was a medieval wedding and an aristocratic marriage—complete with ceremony and banquet—like in the early 15th century? Immerse yourself in history alongside the Rattenschwanz banner, composed of pikemen—who formed the backbone of the League’s armies—halberdiers, archers, and their entourage: the families of soldiers, artisans, merchants, and others who had their own reasons for following the soldiers into battle.

The Sword and Man 2 Conference: Selected Chapters on the History of Swords and People

The aim of the conference is to discuss the role of the sword in human history. What is a sword? When did the sword first appear in our region? What social context is the sword associated with? What is the symbolic role of the sword in various historical eras? How were swords made and how were they used? Did the status of the sword in Central Europe differ from that of swords in Asia? These and many other questions will be discussed at the second interdisciplinary conference, which will follow up on the conference of the same name held in 2022. The third day of the conference, October 3, 2026, will also feature an accompanying program for the general public at the Visitor and Education Center.
